Re: Armenian-Turkish Relations

As the legal and political implications of the newly created international document set in throughout the public, the calls for resignation of Sargsyan would be ever widespread, even perhaps within the ranks of his own party that so far has managed to keep these gruesome discussions private.

I hope they do it as soon as possible!

The deal has been delayed the last minute, apparently by the Armenian side. It's unbelievable.

Turkish-Armenian signing delayed; Clinton departs
By ALEXANDER G. HIGGINS and BRADLEY S. KLAPPER – 27 minutes ago

ZURICH — The signing of an accord to restore diplomatic ties between Turkey and Armenia was delayed at the last minute Saturday due to concerns over the wording of the final statement the parties will make.

U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Rodham Clinton abruptly returned to her hotel just before she was to attend the signing ceremony.

"We're facilitating the two sides on coming to an agreement on the statements they are going to make at the ceremony," said State Department spokesman Ian Kelley.

Diplomats said the Armenians were concerned about wording in the Turkish statement that was to be made after the signing ceremony.

An aide to Clinton was meeting with the Armenians and was talking by telephone with the Turks to work out the problem, said the diplomats, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the talks.

Protocol signing postponed upon Armenia side’s initiative

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Signing of Armenian-Turkish Protocols was postponed upon Armenian side’s initiative, U.S. State Department representative Ian Kelley said. There are unconfirmed data that RA FM Edward Nalbandyan terminated meeting with U.S. State Secretary Hillary Clinton, a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent reports from Zurich. Presumably, Armenian side failed to reach agreement with Turkey at the last moment. Hillary Clinton who was on her way to Zurich University returned to hotel.

Earlier, Swiss Foreign Ministry reported that Protocol signing had been postponed. It is unknown whether documents will be signed at all. The Protocols were to have been signed in presence Swiss Foreign Minister Micheline Calmy-Rey since Switzerland is a mediator in negotiation between Armenia and Turkey.

U.S. State Hillary Clinton, French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, EU Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana, Armenia’s Ambassador to Switzerland Charles Aznavour and Turkey’s Ambassador to Switzerland Oguz Demiralp have arrived in Switzerland to participate in the ceremony.

Re: Armenian-Turkish Relations

The Treaty of Versailles had very steep reparations for the defeated Central Powers. By 1923 the noted financial losses of the Great War were reimbursed as vast segments of territories (including resource rich overseas colonies), had already paid off huge dividends to both the British and French.



As I said above, the noted reparations by 1923 had already eliminated this. In fact the reparations were in trillions. A key defeated nation of Germany in fact was so depleted that many argue that the reparations as stipulated by the Treaty of Versailles were so high that they laid the seeds for discontent throughout Germany and a revanchist spirit that eventually led to World War II.



It was worth it, because the British and the French got what they wanted which included the possession of all of the Arab domains that were formerly part of Turkey/Ottoman Empire. The Turks, dethroned of their empire and the sultan, were suppose to have a state in Anatolia along with Armenians and Greeks. However, Mustapha Kemal, was able to not only keep all of Anatolia for the Turks, but also parts of Thrace (with vital Constantinople) and even territories like Kars and Ardahan that were part of "Russian Armenia" and were an integral part of the First Republic of Armenia.

So in 1923 they had gained they loses back but at that time there was no reason to go and help the Armenians who were a Soviet republic at that time. And before 1923 the Allies couldn't risk to go to war, they had almost bankrupted their countries with WW1, it was even the beginning of the end for Britain. The people didn't want to go to war, no one could have convinced them to go to war again. And like Armanen told the Spanish flue was spreading through Europe.

Yes because we must use this to take over Turkey.

This is to every one, come together with your friends and family and all together collect money the half of it invest it in Armenia and with the rest go buy a business in Turkey. With that we can take over little by little the enemy. We must do what they want to do with us. Let's take over everything and move after a couple of years to Armenia and use the profit to build our country. It's time to get in to action.
