“On the eve of the 107th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the nationalist gesture of Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, demonstrated in front of the representatives of the Armenian community in Montevideo, is a reprehensible act and does not contribute to the formation of an atmosphere of mutual understanding and dialogue between the two people.
We welcome the immediate response of the Uruguayan side to the Turkish Ambassador’s call to Foreign Ministry for explanations”, Eduard Aghajanyan, Chairman of the Standing Committee on Foreign Relations of the National Assembly of Armenia, wrote on his Facebook page.
