/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the Knesset
is possible, according to the head of Israel-Azerbaijan association.
"The calls of Turkish intellectuals to recognize the 1915 events
as Genocide received a logical response in Israel. If Turks are
discussing this issue, we can do it too, Israeli politicians suppose,"
Yosef Shagal said.
"All depends on how persistent Israel Our Home party will be in
strengthening the Baku-Ankara-Jerusalem strategic axis. At that,
other countries can play the 'Armenian card' and iterate Oron and
Elkin's attempt," he said.
"As to my position, it's unchangeable: ongoing discussion of the
subject can damage Israel's state interests," Shagal added, Day.az
reports.
Yosef Shagal, Russian-speaking lobbyist of the Israeli-Turkic
strategic alliance announced his intention to give up politics in
the near future and return to journalism.
