Think about this and see if this makes sense to you:
Turkey’s membership in the European Union would strengthen Armenia’s national security and bring the South Caucasus nation “geopolitically closer to Europe,” Defense Minister Serzh Sarkisian said in a newspaper article published on Friday.
“In addition to building diplomatic ties between our two countries, we believe that in negotiating for membership -- and perhaps as a future EU member state -- Turkey will contribute to an economically stronger and more stable neighborhood,” he said. “This is in the interest of both Turkey and Armenia.
I'm not so sure about this. Maybe all he's doing is trying to embrace the inevitable, which is Turkey's entry without official recognition of the Genocide. But besides a stable region that will be created as a result, with which I agree completely, this will only move the formal recognition of the Genocide farther away. We can't have this.
