PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of the Forum of Armenian Associations of Europe
(FAAE) said he repeatedly addressed the Armenian envoys in the region
with a request to foster promotion of bills criminalizing the Armenian
Genocide denial, but was rejected.
According to Ashot Grigoryan, only Armenian Foreign Ministry's call
for explanation for Slovakian ambassador to Armenia and Azerbaijan
Josef Migash' Genocide denial was significant in promotion of Genocide
recognition campaign.
"However, RA Foreign Ministry shows no activity in the process,"
he said.
Mr. Grigoryan further explained the situation by his harsh criticism of
the Armenian-Turkish protocols, stipulating formation of an interstate
group of historians to study the "fact" of Genocide.
"Ratification of protocols would result in full breakdown of Genocide
recognition campaign ahead of the 100th anniversary of the crime,"
he said,
