ECHR'S VERDICT GIVES GREEN LIGHT FOR RACIAL INTOLERANCE: TURKOLOGIST
10:24, 19 December, 2013
YEREVAN, DECEMBER 19, ARMENPRESS. Notwithstanding the verdict of the
European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) made on December 17, according to
which the denial of the Armenian Genocide by the Workers' Party (İP)
Chairman Dogu Perincek is not a crime, will have a negative impact, it
should not disappoint the Armenian side and lobbying organizations to
continue the activity aimed not merely at the international recognition
of the Armenian Genocide, but the ratification of laws criminalizing
the denial of the Armenian Genocide, as well. In a conversation
with "Armenpress" the Director of Institute of Oriental Sciences of
the National Academy of the Republic of Armenia, turkologist Ruben
Safrastyan stated this.
Previously it was reported that the Armenian Cause French Office and
the Armenian National Committee of Europe issued a statement, which
in particular runs as follows: "The court's verdict is extremely
dangerous and provides direct support to the stream of denialism in
Europe orchestrated by Ankara and Baku and paves an additional way
for them. This infamous decision of the European Court transgresses
the right to dignity of the Armenian Genocide victims and their
descendants."
