The German Federal Parliament, the Bundestag, has unanimously approved
a resolution draft anticipating the commemoration of the alleged
Armenian genocide issued by the Christian Democratic Party (CDP)
and Christian Socialist Party (CSP).

The draft with the title of “Commemorating 1915 Armenian Exchange
and Massacre – Germany should contribute to peace between Turks
and Armenians” has been prepared by the compromise of all political
parties including Social Democratic Party (SDP), CDU, CSU, Union 90/
Green Party and Free Democratic Party (FDP).

The draft approved by the Bundestag extends respect to the Armenian
victims and regret for the responsibility of the German state for
the incidents.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
