YEREVAN, JANUARY 20, ARMENPRESS: Erika Steinbach, the spokesperson for
Human Rights and Humanitarian Aid of the German Parliamentary Group,
has stated that alike France Germany, too, is likely to pass a bill
criminalizing the Armenian Genocide denial.
According to Erika Steinbach, the members of the coalition government
find that no matter how much Turkey denies the reality, it is obvious
that genocide has been committed, Armenpress reports citing CNNTurk.
“The topic of the Armenian Genocide is always kept in our agenda.
Turkey confronts that responsibility,” she said.
The spokesperson for Human Rights and Humanitarian Aid said Turkish
authorities can acknowledge that fact with ease if they state that
the genocide has been committed not by the current leaders of Turkey.
