Turkey condemns remarks by Armenian President Sargsian

ANKARA (A.A) - July 26, 2011 - Turkey has condemned remarks by Armenian President Serzh Sargsian during a contest on Armenian literature and language.   
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Tuesday, "one of the most important duties of a statesman is to prepare his/her own society, especially young people, for a peaceful, tranquil and prosperous future. It is completely irresponsible to advise young people by provoking enmity and hatred among nations. President Sargsian's remarks do not serve efforts to ensure peace in the region."
