SWEDEN DOES NOT RECOGNIZE ALLEGED ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
Baku 9 June
The article titled Karl Bildt: Sweden does not recognize Armenian
genocide has been published in the daily newspaper The Armenian News
(Les Nouvelles dArmenie) in Paris.
According to the article, asked by Swedish Liberal People's party
offical Cecilia Wikstrom about the so-called Armenian genocide, Karl
Bildt, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Sweden, said Sweden doesnt
officially recognize it. According to the minister, it is
responsibility of historians to examine this question carefully. The
minister stressed that official recognition of the so called Armenian
genocide may cause problems for Sweden and groups supporting 1915
allegations will be put in a quandary.
Even if the 1915 events occurred, Turkey is not responsible for what
had happened in the past, and therefore, that there is no legal ground
for that issue, the minister added.
