Turkey anger at Pope Francis Armenian 'genocide' claim. Turkey has summoned the Vatican ambassador after Pope Francis used the word "genocide".

Of course there is, but the genocide and Armenia's geopolitical and demographic situation have a clear connection. The emptying of lands with large Armenian presence definitely reduce any chance of an Armenian state from every becoming self-reliant or viable. Armenia is in a geopolitical cluster fuck. Armenia's political situation is connected to the genocide and to be honest, Armenia-Turkey relations as a whole. Take some time to day dream, think to yourself "What if the Armenian genocide never happened?" and Im sure you will begin to realize the geopolitical, demographic, economic, and especially educational consequences of the Armenian Genocide on the Republic of Armenia.

A reparation is making amends with a person or entity that you wronged, by helping that entity or person in a troubling situation. No Armenian that isnt a Dashnak is asking for Wilsonian Armenia, but territorial reparations really is the only thing worth giving, as it will undo the damage that was done. This isn't the result of greed, Armenians are tired of being fucked over the Russians because the Turks decided to conquer alot of our land after committing genocide against us.

Here is a study that analyzed all possible reparations that could be included in the case of recognition and apology for the crime of genocide:

This study clearly points out that territorial reparation isnt impossible or insane. Its pefectly sane and realistic.

Ive recently shifted my opinion, Ive gone from being utterly against any territorial reparation to be open minded and reasonable about it.

I am wondering, are you willing to enter a PM sort of chat about this?I wouldnt want to spam this comment section.
