17:29, 15 November, 2014
YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 15, ARMENPRESS. Italian MP Romina Mura voiced a
question before the country's Government regarding the activity of the
Turkish Embassy to Italy. "Armenpress" reports about this citing the
personal website of the Italian MP.
Among other things, Mura underscored: "The 100th anniversary of the
Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman Empire will be marked next year. 1.5
million people were killed. So many years have passed now, but Turkey
still continues denying that it has committed genocide and conducts
the policy of putting pressure on all those, who call the elimination
of the Armenian Christians a genocide. Turkey has reached a point,
that it now targets Pope Francis, who called it 'the first genocide of
the 20th century'."
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 France, Germany,
Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, Russia, Poland,
Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia, Cyprus, Lebanon, Uruguay, Argentina,
Venezuela, Chile, Canada, Vatican and Australia.
