Russia has never changed its stance: the Russian State Duma has
twice adopted statements condemning the Armenian Genocide, member of
Russian State Duma Galina Karelova said at the International Social
and Political Global Forum against the Crime of Genocide in Yerevan.
“Regretfully, some states call into question the fact of the Armenian
Genocide due to their political interests,” she said.
The MP said that Russia has supported the Armenian people in the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire.
Karelova noted with regret that nationalist sentiments are increasing
in some countries again and added, “We must do everything possible
to jointly fight against genocides.”
