YEREVAN (YERKIR) -Turkey should recognize the Armenian Genocide of
1915, as the fact is grounded by undisputable proofs, head of 19th
century department at the State Historical Museum, PhD in history
Viktor Bezotosny has told a REGNUM correspondent.

According to him, the question of recognizing the “historic truth” is
a question of time. “The whole world knows about the events of 1915
and calls them Genocide. It strange, that only one country rejects
it and tries to misinterpret and escape from historic facts.

There good and bad pages in history of any country. Well, they should
maker bold and take responsibility to tell the truth, otherwise
memory of those killed in those awful years is being defiled,” Viktor
Bezotosny is quoted as saying. The historian believes that the Armenian
Genocide of 1915 and the Holocaust are results of domestic policies
pursued by countries that committed such villainy.

It is worth mentioning, Russia recognized the Armenian Genocide
officially.

Fact of the Genocide was recognized by many countries, including
France, Uruguay, lower chamber of the Italian parliament, several
US states, parliaments of Greece, Cyprus, Argentina, Belgium, Wales,
Swiss National Council, Canadian House of Commons and Polish Seym.
