The Plenary council of the City Hall of Betera, Spain, has recognized
the Armenian Genocide.
It is mentioned in the decision that massacres and deportation took
place in 1915-1921 on the territory of modern Turkey, particularly,
under the Young Turks rule, during which 1.5 million Armenian were
killed, and another 2 million were forced to leave places of their
residence and find refuge all over the world, thus forming Armenian
Diaspora.
City Hall of Betera officially recognizes the Armenian Genocide and
condemns the crimes against humanities perpetrated during that period.
