Genocide bill introduced to Bulgarian Parliament
17:26 / 03/19/2010Bill on Armenian Genocide is included in the
Bulgarian Parliament agenda. According to Turkish HaberX, the bill was
proposed by `Order, Lawfulness, Justice' party.
Party's leader Yane Yanev underlined that they seek to reach consensus
over the estimates of these tragic events and suggesting a clear
statement for the historical truth following the U.S. and Sweden.
Bulgarian media considers notable the date of motion submission, as it
coincided with Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu's visit to Sofia and
followed Turkish Premier Erdogan's statement about deportation of
Armenians.
Interestingly, on February 7, Bulgarian Parliament rejected a motion
on Armenian Genocide proposed by Ataka party, saying that recognition
will harm Bulgarian-Turkish relations.
