Yerevan/Mediamax/. The Israeli Knesset holds discussions on the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide today.
Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin said that the discussion of the genocide,
promoted by Meretz faction, was not connected to the current strained
relations between Israel and Turkey, Mediamax reports quoting The
Times of Israel newspaper.
"As Jews, and as human beings, we cannot ignore this issue and we
must not turn away from our commitment to morality... As a country
struggling in the international arena with Holocaust denial, we cannot
deny the tragedy of another people", he said.
