14:27 * 21.04.15
The Austrian Parliament's lower chamber has adopted a declaration
condemning the Armenian Genocide committed in the Ottoman Empire 100
years ago.
The measure received backing by all the six groups represented in
the National Council, diepresse.com reports
The website refers to Austria's historical responsibility for the
tragic events, noting that the Ottoman Empire was the Austria-Hungary's
ally during World War I.
The National Council, which is often described as the lower house of
Austria's legislature, is said to practically enjoy more power than
the Federal Council, the second chamber.
