YEREVAN, 2 DECEMBER, ARMENPRESS. The signals from Turkey ahead of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide go to show that Turkey continues its policy of denial. This is what Deputy Speaker of Armenia’s National Assembly Eduard Sharmazanov said during the hour of announcements at the National Assembly. “Evidence of that is Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs Mevlut Cavusoglu’s recent statement, according to which Turkey will impede the process of international recognition of the Armenian Genocide,” the NA Deputy Speaker emphasized, according to “ArmenPress”.

According to Sharmazanov, despite Ankara’s efforts, there are and there will be countries that actually support the protection of human rights. Brilliant evidence is Bolivia since the two chambers of the country’s parliament unanimously condemned the Armenian Genocide and the policy of denial yesterday. The Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly expressed certainty that the crimes against humanity must be condemned since any act of denial is as criminal as the crime itself.
