A civilized person can hardly understand the reason why Turkey
steadfastly refuses to recognize Armenian Genocide, Ukrainian MP
Viktor Ukolov said.
"Turkey has applied to join the European Union and Ankara must
understand that adoption of European values is inevitable.
Consequently, they will have to condemn mistakes made by their
ancestors. You can not pay attention to the values and try to rush into
Europe, run up to Vienna, but then you must be ready to be kicked out,"
he told Analitika.at.ua.
The fact of the Armenian Genocide is recognized by many states. It was
first recognized in 1965 by Uruguay. In general, the Armenian Genocide
in Ottoman Turkey has already been recognized by 21 countries and 43
out of 50 U.S. states.
Turkey denies accusations of mass killings of Armenians during the
First World War and is extremely sensitive to criticism voiced by
the western states.
