The England Turkish Dialog Committee lobby organization in Great
Britain has drawn up a bill on the Belgium government recognizing
the genocide it committed in Congo (APA).
The bill was signed by British parliament members and has been
included into the agenda for discussions. The bill is about the facts
on massacre of millions of people in Congo, colonized by Belgium,
by government forces in 1885-1908. The bill demands the Belgium
government to apologize to Congo people and the international community
for the genocide.
This month, Belgian parliament is going to pass a law on sentencing
persons refusing to recognize the so-called "Armenian genocide"
to one-year in prison. The bill that the Turkish lobby submitted to
British parliament is a response to this step taken by the Belgian
parliament. The England Turkish Dialog Committee stated that the
Belgian parliament should either refuse passing this law or recognize
the genocide it perpetrated in Congo and apologize to the international
committee for having massacred millions of people.
The bill presented by the Turkish lobby was signed by Bottomley Peter,
Conservative Party member, Lin Brown, Martin Katon, David Cheitor,
AndrewDismor, David Drew, Cliv Grogan, Helen Johns , John McDonnel,
Alan Mill from Labor Party and Andrew Georg and Poll Holms from
Liberal-Democratic Party.
