"Turkey acquitted of 1915 incidents in Malta"
Turkish EU minister said on Saturday that Turkey was acquitted of
Armenian allegations on the incidents of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire.
Turkey's European Union Minister and Chief Negotiator for accession
talks Egemen Bagis paid a visit to governor's office in the
northwestern province of Canakkale.
In 1919, Ottoman officials were exiled to Malta, facing charges in
regard to tragedy that happened in 1915, he said.
"The then ministers, commanders and high-level officials were among
them who had faced trial there. The court in Malta acquitted all of
them. The ruling was made by a British judge. In other words, Turkey
was acquitted of 1915 incidents in Malta," he said.
Recently Bagis paid a visit to Malta and attended a conference on
"Creating a Common Future: Need for a Visionary Europe" at the
University of Malta.
