  • Complaint Filed Against Swedish PM For Speaking Out Against Genocide

    COMPLAINT FILED AGAINST SWEDISH PM FOR SPEAKING OUT AGAINST GENOCIDE RESOLUTION

    Sweden's opposition Social-Democratic Party has issued a formal
    complaint against the country's Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt,
    accusing him of acting out against Swedish law.

    According to Turkish news agency Anadolu Ajansi, Social-Democratic
    Party deputy Svend Erik Osterberg said that Reinfeldt's statement
    that the resolution recognizing the genocide of Armenians, Assyrians
    and Chaldeans is a non-binding document for Swedish authorities and
    is not a legally binding document (that is, it cannot be enforced by
    law) runs counter to Swedish law.

    "In a phone conversation with Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
    Erdogan, Fredrik Reinfeldt said that the decision made by the riksdag
    will not matter and apologized [for the decision], which runs counter
    to our laws. Such an approach means that the authorities are going
    against the people's decision. For this reason, we have filed a
    complaint against Fredrik Reinfeldt in the Supreme Court of Sweden,"
    said Osterberg.
