TASHNAG: THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY MUST RECKON WITH ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

NNA – The International community must finally reckon with the Armenian
Genocide, Tashnag party students petitioned German ambassador
Kristian Klages during their march at the embassy today. With
the Centenary of the Armenian Genocide on the 24th of April 2015,
Tashnag students recall a Reichstag bill of motion recognizing the
barbarities perpetrated by the Ottoman Sultanate on Armenians at
the height of the 1915 Genocide amid total complicity of the then
German Reich. As the Federal Republic of Germany acknowledged the
complacency of the Reich, Tashnag students do hereby appeal to the
German Reichstag to take the initiative and criminalize all denial of
the Genocide; pressure must also be applied on the Turkish government
to acknowledge the Ottoman role in the massacres and, by arranging
to pay compensations to the Armenian victims, the petition said. As
grandsons to Genocide survivors, we vow to clamor for justice in quest
of our people’s rights which could never die with the passing of time,
the petition concluded. =====G.G./R.K.
