blackmail - UA-Report

The moves by some politicians, who are prepared to touch upon other
topics for the sake of their own interests, continue to take aback,
UA-Report.info informs.
Mustafa Dzhemilev is Chairman of the Mejlis of the Crimean Tatar
People and a member in the Verkhovna Rada (Supreme Council; i.e., the
Parliament) of Ukraine. His son is accused of murder.
In connection with the registration of the Armenian Genocide
recognition bill at the Rada, he stated: `The number of Turkic peoples
in Ukraine is several times higher than the number of Armenians. The
authors of the bill should understand the threats its recognition will
cause.'
`Mustafa Dzhemilev cannot directly blackmail the opposition party
members and threaten to leave the [party] faction. But he needs to
save his son. That is why Dzhemilev decided to blackmail with a
`leftist' topic: the Armenian Genocide,' Ukrainian political theorist
Anatoliy Sharia wrote in Polemika portal.
But it is not clear why the recognition of the Armenia Genocide causes
so much concern for Mustafa Dzhemilev. The topic is refers to the
Ottoman Empire, and not the Crimean Khanate.
As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, Ukraine may recognize the
Armenian Genocide. A bill, with respect to recognizing the mass
annihilation of the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, was registered on
June 6 in the Verkhovna Rada. Arsen Avakov, Vilen Shatvoryan, and Nver
Mkhitaryan are the persons behind this law proposal.
