Armenia
Turkish oppositional parties' MPs from National Unity and Republican
People's Party intend to come up with a lawsuit against the states,
that recognized Armenian Genocide of 1915 in Ottoman Empire, Turkish
Hurriyet reads.
The final decision on the matter should be made by Turkish government,
that is yet silent.
According to the Republican MP Sukru Elekdag, international court
should give a precise response to Turkey about its fault. He reckons
that both countries' parliaments break assumption of innocence,
accusing Turkey of the genocide: "I suppose that if we achieve the
international out-of-court settlement, extensive work should be done
to establish our case."
He deems the states, that already recognized the fact of genocide
should realize the meaning of the word and determine whether one
state can accuse the other of such a crime.
