ANKARA, FEBRUARY 17, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. The Turkish
parliamentarians who visited Sweden expressed concern with the bill
on recognition of the Armenian Genocide that again appeared in the
Swedish parliament.

The Swedish parliament plans within two weeks to put to vote a bill
on recognition of the genocide committed by Turks against Armenians
and Assyrians.

According to Turkish media, the delegation led by Chairman of
Turkish parliament’s Committee of Foreign Relations Murad Mercan
warned the Swedish side that if the mentioned resolution is adopted,
difficulties will emerge in the Turkey-Sweden relations and will
hinder the ratification process of the Armenian-Turkish protocols by
the Turkish parliament.
