YEREVAN, MARCH 10, ARMENPRESS: The delegation, headed by the Minister
of Foreign Affairs of Serbia Ivan MrkiÄ~G, on March 10 visited
the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial. Armenpress reports that Ivan MrkiÄ~G
laid a wreath at the Memorial and flowers at the Eternal Flame and
commemorated the innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide with
a minute of silence. The members of the Serbian delegation walked
around in the Memorial Park, where Ivan MrkiÄ~G planted a tree.
Serbia has not yet recognized the fact of the Armenian Genocide
officially. 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
genocide in accordance with the international law by 42 out of 50 US
States, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland,
Sweden, Russia, Poland, Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia, Cyprus, Lebanon,
Uruguay, Argentina, Venezuela, Chile, Canada, Vatican, and Australia.
