Armenian Genocide issue became a standard of honesty and high morality
in foreign policy, human rights protection and equity. The issue is
directly related to both Genocide victims’ fates and those of the
whole humanity, the Forum of Armenian Organizations of Moscow said
in its statement.

"Condemnation of Armenian Genocide will help prevent similar atrocities
in future. Early prevention of racial, religious and ethnic groups
rights’ violation is the main way towards prevention of crimes against
humanity. International community’s failure to adequately assess the
first Genocide of 20th century led to further recurrence of similar
atrocities.

It’s crucial that the Genocide should be recognized by Turkey itself;
a civilized country cannot conceal pages of its history, no matter
how shameful.

Turkey’s attitude causes strain in its relations with Armenia,
preventing establishment of bilateral ties.

We express our solidarity with efforts aimed at condemnation and
recognition of Armenian Genocide, as well as restoration of historic
justice," the statement concludes
