The liturgy in Surb Khach church is not a game. If it were a game typical of Turkey’s foreign policy, the public would have prevented it, Yavuz Baydar, a Sabah correspondent, told the Yerkir Media Armenian TV channel.

«I have come here as a journalist and as a man wishing the improvement of Armenian-Turkish relations and making every effort for this. I will do my best for Armenian-Turkish relations to improve and follow a normal course», Baydar said.

He regards as wrong the decision not to install the cross on Surb Khach church. He hopes Turkey will realize its mistake and have the cross installed.

Yanuz Baydar has published articles on Armenian-Turkish relations for many years. He has repeatedly visited Armenia and participated in journalist exchange programs.
