Bundestag Unanimously Adopts Draft Resolution On Armenian Genocide

BUNDESTAG UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTS DRAFT RESOLUTION ON ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

YEREVAN, JUNE 16. ARMINFO. Today German Bundestag has unanimously
adopted the draft resolution “Commemoration Day of Armenians on
occasion of the 90th anniversary of the massacre of April 24 1915 –
Germany should contribute to reconciliation of Turks and Armenians”
elaborated by the faction of the bloc CDU/CSU.

Talking to ARMINFO, the co-author of the resolution, Chairman of the
German Caucasian Parliamentary Group of Bundestag Christoph Bergner
says that the resolution was unanimously adopted by all the parties
in the course of voting without any preliminary discussion.

The document does not characterize the events of 1915 as Genocide,
but it contains a passage saying that international historians call it
“Armenian Genocide.” Earlier Armenian Ambassador to Germany Karine
Ghazinyan said that a relevant decision of Bundestag was equal to
recognition of the Armenian Genocide by Germany.
