20:43, 13 January, 2015ANKARA, 13 JANUARY, ARMENPRESS. Even less than ten percent of Turkey’s population believes the national government should recognize the massacres of Armenians during WWI as genocide. As “Armenpress” reports, citing France-Presse news agency, this is based on the results of a survey.
Based on the results of a survey ahead of the 100th anniversary of the tragedy, only 9.1% of the surveyed say the Turkish government should apologize for the killings of 1915. Another 9.1% say Turkey should apologize, without recognizing the genocide.
