CZECH SENATOR TO PREPARE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE BILL
PRAGUE, APRIL 26, ARMENPRESS: Czech news agencies reported that Senator
Jaromir Stetina announced during a church service that he was prepared to
draft a motion for parliament demanding recognition of the Armenian
genocide.
“I am ashamed that the Czech Republic has not passed such a resolution
until now. I ask the Armenian community to offer me its support,’ he said.
Stetina explained that his intention became stronger after the parliament
of neighboring Poland passed a resolution recognizing and condemning the
Armenian genocide.
“Modern Turkey, the successor of the Ottoman empire, that wants to join
the EU, must review its past,’ he said.
