A delegation led by the chairman of the Chamber of Deputies of the
Belgian parliament, Herman de Croo, arrived in Armenia today. The
Belgian delegation visited the memorial to Armenia’s genocide.

To recap, events devoted to the Armenian genocide will be held in the
Belgian parliament within the next two weeks. Employees of the Armenian
Genocide Museum handed over to the Belgian delegation necessary photos
and copies of documents.

The Armenians are great people. We must not forget the past. What
happened in the past must not be repeated. You are located between
the two countries with whom you have tense relations. You cannot
choose your neighbours but you should live with them.
