"We condemn those who recognize the so-called Armenian genocide. The truth must find its place. The Turkish nation has never had anything in the history to be embarrassed of, " Turkish ambassador to Azerbaijan Erkan Özoral said.
Report informs that he spoke in a roundtable entitled "So-called Armenian Genocide: Truth and Realities" held in Baku.
The ambassador said that Armeniansэ actions and crimes against Azerbaijan must receive their assessment: "How will they respond for their actions against our Azerbaijani brothers? I would like to say to those, who accuse Turkey of committing genocide, to investigate the truth. Lies should be erased from the world. I urge Armenians to be just and avoid lying. Everyone must bear responsibility for the crime. 34 Turkish diplomats have so far been killed by ASALA. "
The diplomat noted that those who committed genocide in Khojaly must receive a decent response: "Armenians who killed the Azerbaijanis were heroized. This is the greatest injustice in the world."
