/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The decision of the Swedish Parliament to recognize
the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Empire, as well as the Armenian
Genocide resolution 252 adopted by the U.S. House Committee on Foreign
Affairs show that the Armenian Genocide international recognition
has become irreversible process, Edward Sharmazanov, secretary of
the RPA parliamentary group told PanARMENIAN.Net.
According to him, this process cannot prevent the Armenian-Turkish
normalization, but instead will give a new impetus to it.
"International recognition of the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Empire
will force Turkey to revise own history and help the country to move
forward," Sharmazanov said.
On March 11 the Swedish Parliament adopted the Armenian Genocide
resolution with 131 votes in favor and 130 against, the resolution
acknowledges also genocides of Assyrians and Pontic Greeks in the
Ottoman Empire (modern Turkey).
On March 4 the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted the
Armenian Genocide resolution 252 with 23 votes in favor and 22 against.
