    Armenia to take the so-called genocide to the UN

    NTV MSNBC, Turkey
    Dec 24 2004

    The Armenian Foreign Minister said that his country was not an
    outpost for Russia or any other country.

    December 24 - Armenia is to take its claims that the Ottoman Empire
    committed genocide against its Armenian citizens to the United Nations.

    Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanyan said in a television
    interview late Thursday that Yerevan would bring the so-called Armenian
    genocide issue before the United Nations in 2005.

    Oskanyan said that the issue of the alleged Armenian genocide was an
    international matter that extended beyond Armenia and that had been
    raised during Turkey's European Union progress talks.

    In the meantime, a number of persons who are claiming compensation
    for having allegedly suffered as a result of the actions of the
    Ottomans in 1917 to 1918, have lodged applications with the Armenian
    authorities. To date, some 450 application have been submitted.
