Yerevan, April 26. ArmInfo. Lithuanian President Valdas Adamkus advises the Armenian people not to be silent in the cause of international recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
During his meeting with Yerevan State University professors and students today, Adamkus said that the Armenian people must do its best to prove to the world that the Genocide actually happened. Still it is a hard job to give advice in such a delicate issue. Do as you think right. I believe you are right, Adamkus said.
Asked if the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the Lithuanian parliament may aggravate Lithuania’s relations with Turkey, Adamkus said that the key principle of Lithuania’s foreign policy is mutual respect. And if Turkey has any problems, Lithuania will remind it of this principle.
The same principle is applied in Lithuania’s relations with Russia. Countries may have differences over certain issue but they should try to solve them, including by involving their youths. This is the only way of civilized policy, Adamkus said.
