ISTANBUL – Dogu Perincek, the leader of Workers` Party (IP) said he
would apply to European Court of Justice regarding the ratification
of the verdicts of Lausanne Court of First Instance and Regional Court
of Appeal by the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland, on Saturday.
Holding a press conference at his party`s HQs in Istanbul Perincek,
said the Swiss FSC had seriously violated freedom of thought and
scientific freedom.
Perincek said the verdict of FSC rested on the political decisions
of EU acknowledging the `Armenian genocide lie`.
"This is a politically motivated verdict. The Swiss administration and
Swiss judges are becoming a tool for US plot of separating Turkey under
the Greater Middle East Project. This is a shame for Switzerland,"
noted Perincek.
Perincek who indicated they would not surrender to this decision
wowed to mobilise the Turkish citizens living in Europe to stand to
this verdict.
Perincek said he would apply to the ECJ about the verdict.
"I will put a 90kg pile of Armenian documents –proving that the
allegations of an Armenian genocide is an international lie– on the
bench of the ECJ," said Perincek.
IP leader Perincek, was prosecuted for breaching the Swiss law on
"denying" Armenian allegations of genocide because of the remarks he
made during a conference in the Winterthur city of Switzerland in 2005
saying that Armenian allegations of genocide were "an imperialist lie".
