13:09, 24 April, 2013
YEREVAN, APRIL 24, ARMENPRESS. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary
of the Armenian Genocide Senator of the Czech Republic JaromÃr
Å tÄ~[tina will introduce a bill on recognition of the Armenian
Genocide to the Czech Senate. In an exclusive conversation with
"Armenpress" the Czech Senator underlined: "To my opinion it's of
a certain importance to adopt a realistic document condemning the
Armenian Genocide committed in the Ottoman Empire in 1915."
The Senator sees two possible options for the recognition of the
Armenian Genocide in the Czech Republic. The first is the Slavonic
version - to adopt a declaration on the recognition of the Armenian
Genocide, and the second option is to pass a relevant bill. Among
other things the Czech Senator stated: "Taking into consideration
that the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide is approaching,
I am going to introduce a declaration on recognition of the Armenian
Genocide to the Czech Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and Defense
issues. In case of approval we shall try to pass the declaration in
the Czech Republic Senate."
The fact of the Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman government has
been documented, recognized, and affirmed in the form of media
and eyewitness reports, laws, resolutions, and statements by many
states and international organizations. The complete catalogue
of all documents categorizing the 1915 wholesale massacre of the
Armenian population in Ottoman Empire as a premeditated and thoroughly
executed act of genocide, is extensive. Uruguay was the first country
to officially recognize the Armenian Genocide in 1965. The massacres
of the Armenian people were officially condemned and recognized as a
genocide in accordance with the international law by France, Germany,
Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, Russia, Poland,
Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia, Cyprus, Lebanon, Uruguay, Argentina,
Venezuela, Chile, Canada, Vatican, and Australia.
