Yerevan /Mediamax/. German Ambassador to Armenia Rainer Morel expressed the hope today that Turkey will think about apologizing to Armenians within upcoming years.

“What we achieved after the World War II was a result of hard work and great efforts. We understood that we should apologize and adhere to reconciliation. We hope Turkey will think over this issue within upcoming years. Some movements are noticeable in the Turkish society, so there is hope for progress”, said the German Ambassador.

 

UK Ambassador to Armenia Katherine Leach noted that Turkey is an important NATO ally and “'we support the works that Turkey realizes to get closer to the EU”.

 

“At the same time, we support Armenia-Turkey rapprochement - the EU and member states welcomed the signing of Protocols in 2009. We hope that 2015 which is a very symbolic year for Armenians will mark a step forward in Armenia-Turkey rapprochement process”, said Katherine Leach.
