 December
2, 2004, Panarmenian.Net: On the initiative of the Christian-Democratic
faction the Slovakian parliamentarians unanimously voted for the recognition
of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire in 1915. The country's position
on Turkey's membership in EU and the issue of the Armenian Genocide recognition
became the urgent items of the Slovakian parliament session agenda. The
Slovakian parliament is as well supposed to appeal to all the European legislative
bodies with a request to demand from Turkey the adoption of the Genocide
condemning resolution as a precondition to EU membership. The Slovakian
parliament speaker is preparing a speech against Turkey's admission to the
EU. |
