As the Hrant Dink Foundation, we have been working to contribute to the normalization of the relations between Armenia and Turkey since our establishment in 2007. We attribute special importance to the development of relations between Turkey and Armenia. Over the course of years, during our work with many organizations and individuals from these two neighboring countries, we have seen that we are not alone in our stance. 

We are deeply saddened and worried about the recent conflict in the region. 

We call on the administrators of all related countries to open negotiation channels and to operate diplomatic tools so that the societies of Armenia and Azerbaijan can live together in peace.  

The quote in the video belongs to an article that Hrant Dink penned about peace in 1996 for Agos Newspaper:

‘’And it’s not as though I don’t ask myself, ‘’With so many weapons going around, how can I bring about peace with a signature?” But you can’t change the habit of a lifetime. 

 (…)

May the death of the war be due to my signature, and may my death be for Peace! ”
