The Armenian National Council of South America (Consejo Nacional Armenio de Sudamerica, CNA) issued a statement on the initialed Armenian-Turkish Protocols. The CNA regards as unacceptable many of the points of the Protocols - first of all the terms set for a final ratification of the Protocols by the Armenian and Turkish Parliaments.
The CNA believes that six months is a term that is the result of economic and diplomatic pressure on Armenia endangering the country's national security and Armenians” rights. The Protocols provide for the formation of a subcommittee to conduct an impartial scientific study of historical documents and archives. According to the CNA, Turkey's aim is to delay the process of international recognition of so called Armenian genocide.
Armenian diaspora organization reminded the statements of Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu that Turkey will not make steps against the interest of Azerbaijan, and stated that Turkey should recognize allegations of so called Armenian genocide before establishing good relations with Armenia.
