/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Adoption of the Armenian Genocide resolution in
Sofia’s city council was delayed on initiative of the Bulgarian
government.
A joint press conference of Bulgarian Prime Minister Sergei Stanishev
and his Turkish counterpart was nearly disrupted owing to extreme-right
Attack (ATAKA) Party, whose leader Volen Siderov said he will ask the
Turkish PM questions about the Armenian Genocide at the hands of the
Ottoman Empire in 1915.
The press conference took place anyway. Bulgaria’s Prime Minister
made his apologies for the incident to his Turkish counterpart,
Zaman reports.
