This text common dream we signed between Armenian and Turkish, in respect to both the public and history, is the beginning of a period of peace …
Turkey for a long time with the political culture of the Republic, the founder of achieving an offense of obstructing the past to keep it under protection and was a permanent obstacle to the establishment of the rule of law. However, the terrible events that took place in 1915 and nobody can afford to delete the results. The last 10 years in many areas path to be taken in this regard testified. Academic research, cultural activities, restoration of monuments, to search for the roots of individuals in the public sphere, such as arranging reunions are important steps follow each other. To repair a portion of the fallen, to help those who have experienced a tremendous disadvantage, in order to entitle them to a special serious, sincere and constant work now possible to make a memory. Life of the memory traces overlap began. Our initiative is a continuation of it and of the Republic of Turkey, to prevent an aside, this presumes that will take place in the intersection.
Diaspora Armenians a century later, on a date still are uncomfortable being confined to a false debate. To visit the land where the roots, they are ignited by the desire to show to the children. Today’s Turkey is not blocking them in this regard. But the state of charge of a single word of truth, can help heal the wounds in their memory. Not being able to hear the names of concussions establishing new relationships with cities and villages can, however, not possible with such a powerful invitation. As Hrant Dink And so “water finds cracks”.
Our shared dream is as follows: Story and places in Turkey with only the memory of Armenians died, that they were victims of a genocide by accepting the honor. Would people and ideas that led to this exhibition. History books and street names, the destruction of Armenian names of those who govern and apply it, but scrupulous and fair people who saved Armenians ovary. The Government of Turkey to the Armenian Church and the foundation, they have monuments shall return. From Turkey and Armenians are proud of this common cultural heritage.
Our dream of a complete and full citizenship in the secular Republic of Turkey too. Non-Muslims are taking place in public office, complete the prosecution of those who murdered them is in progress, the rhetoric of hate crime laws is declared. Armenians and Türkiyeliler, in his own style, two Armenian identity embraces Muslims who want to live well.
Our dream water crack of Hrant pointed out, today a large part of the world that hosts Armenian young independent Armenia is also available to reach. The government of Turkey in the dream, drown him embargo, instead of listening to the demands from along the border, the border opens, helping to find the end of the isolation of Armenia. Armenia to one of the ports on the Black Sea, Trabzon or Samsun, provide an opportunity for privileged access. And formerly in Cilicia, Mersin on the Mediterranean coast or Ayas (Ovarian), an economic convenience, beyond the existing cultural heritage shines from the Middle Ages, is the center of a new multicultural life.
Mount Ararat, where the two countries share the spiritually we are dreaming, this symbolizes a new era. Mount Ararat, which are included in the UNESCO world cultural heritage list turns into a huge natural park and along the Armenians from Turkey will add value is a kind of free zone. Pain where the roots of humanity becomes a beacon of peace.
To begin to realize this dream, this text signatories to the 1915 relocation of the memorial on the road who want to organize assistance to Armenians around the world are promising. In 2015, to the land of their ancestors, their memories and they go together to find historical traces.
