Turkologist views Erdoğan's step as "insolence"

Turkologist views Erdoğan's step as "insolence"

YEREVAN, 16 JANUARY, ARMENPRESS. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has crudely violated the norms of diplomatic etiquette by inviting President of the Republic of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan to Turkey on April 24. In an interview with “Armenpress”, Turkologist Hakob Chakryan mentioned that Erdoğan was aware that on April 24 all Armenians will be marking the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Therefore, sending such an invitation is humiliating. 

“This is already a violation of all the norms of etiquette. By sending the Turkish President an invitation to participate in the ceremony commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide on April 24, Serzh Sargsyan threw the ball in the Turks’ court once again. Now, Erdoğanwants to take a step to respond. This isn’t a very reasonable way of taking the initiative from Serzh Sargsyan. The Turkish President is competing with Sargsyan, but this time Erdoğan’s step can simply be referred to as insolence,” Chakryan underscored, adding that when inviting Sargsyan, Erdoğan knew very well that Serzh Sargsyan wouldn’t visit Turkey.
