Interview with Dr. Sylvia Tiryaki | “We talk about the historical events” | News.Az

News.Az's interview with Dr. Sylvia Tiryaki about the 1915 events and Turkey-Armenia relations.
 

• How can Pope Francis’ decision influence the relations between Turkey and Vatican?

It is clear that it will not contribute positively. But I am sure that both sides will do their utmost best to overcome this.

• And I want to ask a separate question. How can this decision influence the Armenian attempts to get worldwide recognition of “Genocide”?

You know, Pope Francis is not someone to be taken lightly and not only in the Christian world. He is one of the most prominent opinion molders. So, what he says, matters.
