We need a just memory, one that can be duly built upon factual and scholarly data. With this understanding, Turkey offered the establishment of a "Joint History Commission" back in 2005, which remains on the table. We would have been on a different stage if this offer were to be accepted. On the other hand, I wish to underline the fact that, trying to establish a link between Turkey and the events in Kassab is no more than a futile attempt of distorting the reality and it is therefore totally unfounded. Expansive efforts by Turkey aiming to assist the people of Syria regardless of any ethnic or religious consideration are recognized and appreciated by the international community as a whole. In this regard, it will be appreciated if this communication could be published on the webpage of the Seventh Session of the Forum on Minority Issues as a response to the above-mentioned intervention. Please accept, Mr Chair, the assurances of my highest consideration.
