/PanARMENIAN.Net/ 133 British parliamentarians expressed their support
on the Armenian Genocide resolution. This is three times the total
for 2006, when 46 MPs signed the motion by Jeremy Corbyn. It is
also more than double the previous highest total of 63, which was
achieved in 2003, independent French journalist Jean Eckiyan told
the PanARMENIAN.Net corespondent. It is expected that many more will
undersign the document after the June 27 major speech on a report
titled "Darfur and Armenia" in the House of Commons. The new Prime
Minister Gordon Brown, himself a historian, will be challenged on
"Genocide Denial and the UK government’s Ethical Foreign Policy"
at this event.
