The Israeli Parliament will not submitted the Armenian Genocide issue
for discussions, Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Hulusi Kilic told
journalists today.
"Our position is that the parliamentarians should give an opportunity
to historians to study this issue. I think that Israeli Parliament
will not take a false step," Kilic said.
According to him, Turkey has many friends in Israel.
The Israeli Knesset approved Thursday a motion to discuss the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide in one of its committees. Twenty
MPs participated in the voting, 12 of whom voted for the decision
and eight – against.
