ահագին նայվում է։ «ես հասկանում եմ արաբներին, արաբները հասկանում են ինձ, բայց մեզանից ոչ մեկ չի հասկանում պրոֆեսոր Դերշովիցին»։ լրիվ վերջն է։

There is no such thing as the guilt or innocence of an entire nation. Guilt is, like innocence, not collective, but personal. There is discovered or concealed individual guilt. There is guilt which people acknowledge or deny. Everyone who directly experienced that era should today quietly ask himself about his involvement then.
The vast majority of today’s population were either children then or had not been born. They cannot profess a guilt of their own for crimes that they did not commit. No discerning person can expect them to wear a penitential robe simply because they are Germans. But their forefathers have left them a grave legacy. All of us, whether guilty or not, whether old or young, must accept the past. We are all affected by its consequences and liable for it. The young and old generations must and can help each other to understand why it is vital to keep alive the memories. It is not a case of coming to terms with the past. That is not possible. It cannot be subsequently modified or made not to have happened. However, anyone who closes his eyes to the past is blind to the present. Whoever refuses to remember the inhumanity is prone to new risks of infection.
from the speech by Richard von Weizsacker, President of the Federal Republic of Germany
May 8, 1985
Could it happen that today’s Turkey leader have a similar speech referring to the #armeniangenocide ?
That’s just impossible very unlikely.
