MPs of the opposition New Party (NS) submitted to the Serbian
parliament Monday a draft resolution on the recognition and
condemnation of genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire against
the Armenian people in the period from 1915 to 1922, according to
Tanjug Exactly.
According to the website of that party, the draft resolution also calls
on other countries, including Turkey, and international organizations
to recognize and condemn the genocide against the Armenian people
and in that way help prevent such crimes from happening in the future.
New Party is calling on the Serbian government and citizens to observe
April 24 as a day of remembrance of the victims of the Armenian
Genocide, stressing that the day will mark one hundred years since
the beginning of the Armenian Genocide, recognized and condemned by
more than 20 countries.
The party said that the deliberate and systematic extermination of the
Armenian population in the Ottoman Empire, a persecution on a truly
horrifying scale, had been one of the most serious crimes against
humanity ever made, and it was therefore a moral obligation of all to
honor the victims by recognizing and strongly condemning the genocide.
