YEREVAN (YERKIR) – The Parliament of Venezuela adopted a resolution
on July 14 recognizing the Armenian Genocide, introduced by Parliament
Member Victor Hugo Morales and lawyer Janet Madris.
Archbishop Komitas Ohanian and Grigor Postalian represented Venezuela’s
Armenian community at the Parliament session. The resolution also
calls on the European Union to deny Turkey a European Union membership
unless and until that country recognized the Armenian Genocide.
The Cilicia Catholicosate and Catholicos Aram I have greatly
contributed to the years-long effort that crowned with success on
July 14.
