The The Washington Times, commenting on the possible normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations, emphasizes that even if the border is opened, the memory of the genocide committed against Armenians and the demand for historical justice cannot be ignored.

The article states that the 1915 genocide committed against Armenians remains one of the foundations of the Armenian people’s historical memory and national identity. Regardless of political developments, no Armenian leader can call upon the people to forget the Genocide or abandon the pursuit of historical justice.

According to the publication, normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey may contribute to regional stability and economic cooperation, but it cannot come at the expense of historical truth. The author emphasizes that the memory of the genocide committed against Armenians remains a non-negotiable value, and recognition of historical justice continues to hold great significance for millions of Armenians around the world.

The Washington Times also notes that international actors may support dialogue, but the tragedy of the past cannot be erased or forgotten through any political process.

The memory of the genocide committed against Armenians cannot become a subject of political bargaining, especially when it concerns the protection of the inalienable rights of the Armenian people to Western Armenia and the restoration of historical justice.
