    On January 29, 2015, anniversary of the recognition of the Armenian
    genocide by France, the Belgian MEP Gerolf Annemans (nationalist party
    Vlaams Belang "Flemish Interest") submitted to European Parliament
    a bill calling on Turkey to recognize the Armenian genocide, Jean
    Eckian reports from France.

    The proposal is also signed by the French deputies of the Front
    National party, with its President Marine Lepen.

    A. Considering that previous resolutions have not led to
    the recognition of the Genocide by the Turkish government ;
    B. Considering a century after the event, the time has come to
    initiate reconciliation; 1. Calls on the Turkish government to
    officially recognize the genocide in 1915 by the government of the
    Ottoman Empire against the Armenians living in Turkey; 2. Instructs
    its President to forward this resolution to the Turkish government,
    the Armenian government, the Commission, the Council and the Presidents
    of the Parliament of the Republic of Turkey and the Parliament of
    the Republic of Armenia.
