We are grateful to Armenia for speaking about the Assyrian Genocide,
Assyrian member of Iran Majlis, Ivnatan Beyt Kolia, said, according
to the Alik daily newspaper of the Iranian Armenian community.
"Here pass hundred years since the horrible Genocide perpetrated
by the Ottomans against the Assyrians, Armenians and Greeks. Still,
they have not only failed to comply with the righteous demands of the
victims' descendants, but also have not even said a word of apology.
Today, only after hundred years, they say 'researches are needed to
find out whether that inhumane disaster was genocide or not.' How
childish!" the Assyrian MP said referring to the Armenian Genocide
Centennial in his speech in the Iranian Majlis.
"Today only Armenia and the European Parliament speak about the
Assyrian Genocide in 1915; and we are grateful for that," Ivnatan
Beyt Kolia added.
Robert Beglaryan and Karen Khanlaryan, MPs of Armenian origin, have
also had speeches in Iran Majlis concerning the Armenian Genocide
Centennial.
"We call on the government and the President Rouhani in particular
to call the real facts by their name. That will make it possible
to support the security in the region," Robert Beglaryan said in
his speech.
