Armenian MP submitted bill on recognition of Armenian Genocide to Turkish Parliament

ARMINFO
Armenia –

ArmInfo. On the eve of the 107th anniversary of  the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire,  MP from the Turkish  People's Democratic Party Garo Paylan submitted a draft law on the  recognition of the Armenian Genocide to the Grand National Assembly.

According to the Turkish media, the bill contains a requirement to  identify those responsible for this crime against humanity, it is  proposed to remove the names of the perpetrators of the genocide from  public places and instead write the names of civilians who opposed  the genocide, as well as to grant Turkish citizenship to the  descendants of the victims of the Genocide and their families.

"The genocide of the Armenian people must be discussed, recognized,  and justice must be done in the Turkish parliament, in the country  where it happened. If this happens, the leaders and parliaments of  other countries will no longer be able to comment on this issue. Only  Turkish society can heal the wounds of the Armenian people. "The  Armenian Genocide was committed on these lands, and justice can only  be established here, in Turkey," the bill says.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
