ArmInfo. Bulgaria's conservative Order, Law, and Justice (RZS) party is
submitting with the Parliament Thursday an official declaration asking
that Bulgaria condemns the Armenian genocide committed by Turkey.
The declaration is in connection with the Thursday visit of Turkish
Foreign Minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, to Bulgaria and statements of
Turkey's Prime Minister Erdogan that the country is prepared to
extradite 100 000 Armenians.
RZS is also requesting an official answer from Prime Minister, Boyko
Borisov, about the policy of the cabinet regarding the Armenian
genocide during World War I.
The party leader, Yane Yanev, says they aim at reaching a consensus
about Bulgaria's assessment of the tragic events and giving a clear
statement in defense of historical truth as the US and Sweden have
done.
US Congressional Foreign Affairs Committee and the Swedish Parliament
recently approved resolutions to brand the 1915 killing of Armenians
in the Ottoman Empire as genocide, stirring outrage in Turkey.
