ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RECOGNITION SHOULD BE TRANSFERRED TO LEGAL FIELD - EXPERT
12:40 ~U 22.04.13
The National Council of Western Armenia offers to put the accent not
on the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by different countries
but its condemnation on legal platform, council's chairman Armenak
Abrahamyan told the reporters on Monday.
He stressed that the recognition of Genocide by different countries
will not give anything to Armenia. "If we transfer this issue on legal
platform, the recognition of the Genocide will automatically happen.
We must reach the recognition of our rights as the recognition by
this or that country is not useful," he said.
Abrahamyan said the Western Armenia's National Council is engaged in
two trials. "We have applied to the European Court of Human Rights in
connection with Ani cases and to International court on Dersim cases.
All the means should be used and it is necessary to apply for reaching
condemnation of the whole Armenian Genocide," he added.
Member of the council Tigran Pashabezyan said that during these
long years Turkey's genocidal policy has not changed which must make
Armenia more sober.
"Armenian Genocide has been committed after 1915 as well in 80s. It
was committed against Armenians in Azerbaijan, and continues till now.
One of its examples is the elimination of Jougha cemetery," he said.
According to him, Armenia must work out new strategy to reach
condemnation of the Armenian Genocide and raise the level of
self-protection to prevent Armenian genocide in every corner of
the world.
