/PanARMENIAN.Net/ After a long debate, the Social Democrat Party
Congress 2009 disregarded the recommendation from the Party Executive,
approving the first clause of motion J28, stating that "the Social
Democrats shall act for the genocides Seyfo (1915 Genocide) and
Al-Anfal (Iraqi Kurdistan) to be recognized by Sweden, EU and UN".
The Union of Armenian Associations in Sweden (UAAS) applauds the
Congress for its historic decision, noting that this action shall in
no way harm the democratization process in Turkey, the research on the
genocide, nor the reconciliation process between Turkey and Armenia.
The Union looks forward to this decision of the Congress being
reflected in the Social Democratic activities within the Swedish
Parliament and in the future work of their MPs in regard to the
existing parliamentary motions calling for an official Swedish
recognition of the 1915 Genocide.
