Armenian has welcomed the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the Senate of Paraguay.
“The continuity of the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide proves that the crimes against humanity have no statute of limitation, and the humanity continues to recognize and condemn the Armenian Genocide even 100 years after it was committed,” Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian said in a statement.
“With this step the Senate of Paraguay made an important contribution to the international efforts of preventing genocides and crimes against humanity,” the Foreign Minister stated.
