Turkey's ruling party refutes information about visit to memorial of "genocide" in Armenia

“This was an unofficial visit of the party representatives to Armenia. The visit involved some party representatives. But the information spread by Turkish mass media is untrue.

For example, Mahmut Shek, who is said to be the party member in  the disseminated information, in reality bears no relationship to the party at the moment. Earlier he has been among the party leadership, but currently he has nothing to do with it”, said spokesman of the ruling party of Justice and Development of Turkey Basri Barut.

“The people, who are mentioned in the information, visited Armenia, but they did not pay a visit to the memorial of “genocide” in Yerevan. They are going to hold a press conference and tell the truth about this untrue information. They told me that they did not visit the memorial of “genocide”, that they paid an unofficial visit to Armenia and it is untrue to bind their visit to the party”, noted he.

Notably, earlier it was reported that Turkey’s ruling party representatives visited the memorial of “genocide” in Armenia.
