The German side will be represented at the events commemorating
the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, German Ambassador
Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Armenia Reiner Morell said in
an interview with Public Radio of Armenia.
The Ambassador said he knows the Armenian President has invited
the heads of a number of states to attend Genocide centenary
commemoration, but found it hard to say whether the German Chancellor
would participate in the events.
It's noteworthy that when speaking about the events of 1915, Ambassador
Morell gave it the right name - the Armenian Genocide.
"I know that your President has invited leaders of a number of
countries. There is still half a year ahead, let's wait to see what
the Chancellor decides. I'm confident that Germany will have its
representative at the Genocide centennial events," Reiner Morell said.
Will Germany use a new word to describe the 1915 events this time?
"As you remember, on the 90th anniversary Germany adopted a resolution
condemning those events using an equivalent term. I don't know whether
the public and political circles in Germany will use a new word to
describe the events, but your President also came forth with the call
from the high podium of the UN," Ambassador Morell said.
