Turks and Armenians should “build the future together by drawing inspiration from our deep-rooted unity”, says President Erdogan in a letter to the head of the Armenian Patriarchate in Istanbul
In message to Turkish-Armenian community, Türkiye's President Erdogan called to"heal the wounds of the past and further strengthen social ties."
His message, sent on Sunday, addressed the Turkish-Armenian community gathered at the Istanbul Armenian Patriarchate to honour the Ottoman Armenians who died in the "harsh conditions" of World War I. "It is important for us, who have for centuries shared each other’s joy and sorrow, to heal the wounds of the past and further strengthen social ties," said Erdogan.
He stressed that it is a humanitarian duty to understand and share these common pains without discriminating by religion, ethnicity, or culture. He assured that Türkiye would "make every effort in order for our Armenian citizens, who have left indelible marks on our cultural and social lives throughout our co-existence extending to centuries on these lands, to maintain their lives in peace, trust and security."
