BRATISLAVA, APRIL 5, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Jan Carnogusky,
the first Prime Minister of Slovakia and the former Justice Minister,
the founder and first Chairman of the Christian-Democratic movement of
Slovakia will participate in the conference dedicated to the Armenian
Genocide. The conference is organized by the Senate of Czechia. Ashot
Grigorian, the Chairman of the All-Armenian Organizations' European
Representation and of the Armenian community of Slovakia informed
Noyan Tapan about this. Czech Senator Jaromir Stetina, presiding the
conference, sent an invitation for participation in the conference to
Jan Carnogursky and Ashot Grigorian, with a goal to exchange experience
of adopting at the Parliament of Slovakia the resolution on Armenian
Genocide. Carnogursky, who is also a famous lawyer, prepared a report
concerning legal bases of the resolution on the Genocide. Ashot
Grigorian will not be present at the conference himself, as he
will participate in the court procedure going on in Budapest on
the case of Armenian officer Gurgen Margarian's murder. However,
he attached much importance to holding such a conference in Czechia,
emphasizing that this gives a basis to hope that following the example
of neighboring Slovakia, Czechia will also adopt in the nearest future
the resolution condemning the Armenian Genocide and "will join those
progressive countries which have had courage to say their true word,
ignoring Turkish pressures."
