The Armenian Assembly of Europe issued a statement in which it
expresses its warmest thanks to the Swedish Parliament which, despite
all pressure on the part of the Turkish authorities and other
obstacles, taking into consideration the reality of historical
evidence and the principle that justice is the ultimate value, has
recognized the genocide against the Armenians and other peoples, which
was committed by Turkey in 1915.
`We extend our thanks to the Social Democrat, Green and Left Parties,
which, honoring their promises and adhering to their convictions,
voted for the recognition and the condemnation of the Armenian
Genocide. We also express our thanks to those deputies of the
governmental coalition who voted according to their convictions and
not according to their party' s stand, and to those organizations and
persons who for many years did not spare any pains and efforts so as
to achieve the official recognition on behalf of Sweden,' the
statement reads.
