    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian community of Spain called upon Spanish
    MPs Rosa M. Bonas and Joan Puigcercos to open discussions on the
    Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire. The deputies appealed with
    a corresponding interpellation to the Foreign Relations Committee
    and other MPs to recognize the Armenian Genocide as a crime against
    humanity. Later Rosa Bonas told Anatoly Turkish news agency, "We'll
    make changes in the proposal by taking out an article pressing Ankara
    to recognize the Armenian Genocide."

    At the same time she said that she always has a special attitude to
    national minorities nut learned about the Armenian Genocide only
    after the appeal of the Armenian community. For his part, Turkish
    Ambassador to Spain Volkan Vural stated that if the discussions open
    they will damage the Spanish-Turkish relations.
