Garoyian calls on Ankara to recognise Armenian genocide

FAMAGUSTA GAZETTE 26.APR.09
House President Marios Garoyian has called on Ankara to recognise the
Armenian genocide it carried out, claiming that only by admitting this
crime there will be complete and fair restoration of the historic
truth.

In a speech at a gathering in Nicosia, Garoyian said Armenians honour
another anniversary of the 1915 genocide and continue the struggle for
international recognition of one of the most heinous crimes against
humanity in the last century and seek justification.

`We condemn yet again the atrocious crime and declare again our demand
for international condemnation and recognition of the Armenian
Genocide and urge Turkey to recognize, admit its crime and apologize
to the Armenian people and the whole of humanity.

Garoyian said Armenians and Cypriots are on a common course for many
years. They are both victims of Turkish brutality but continue to
fight, demanding their rights and restoration of history.
