YEPP adopts resolution recognizing Armenian Genocide

YEREVAN, MAY 18, ARMENPRESS. The Youth of the European People's Party (YEPP) has adopted a resolution recognizing and condemning the genocides of the Armenians, Pontic Greeks and Assyrians. The resolution was adopted at the course of the organization’s 10th congress held in Portugal. The Youth Foundation of Armenia informed “Armenpress” about this.

The document, particularly, runs as follows: “The youth wing of the European People’s Party urges the member states of the EU and the European Council, as well as the international organizations, to recognize and restore the historical reality in memory of the victims of the genocides of the Armenians, Pontic Greeks and Assyrians.

All the interested sides recognize the genocides of the Armenians, Pontic Greeks and Assyrians and adopt April 24 and May 19 as the remembrance days of the Armenian Genocide and the Genocide of Pontic Greeks respectively.”

250 young leaders representing over 40 countries participated in the organization’s 10th congress. The YEPP unanimously adopted the resolution.

YEPP is the youth organisation of the European People's Party. We bring together 57 Centre-Right youth political organisations from 39 countries all over Europe. Founded in 1997, YEPP has developed into the largest political youth organisation in Europe. Apart from being active within the structures of our mother party the EPP, we are committed in a number of other international arenas. One of our main objectives is to maintain good contacts within our political family, provide ground for training, discussion and cooperation and prepare the younger generation to lead tomorrow's Europe. This runs parallel to our mission to stimulate further integration in Europe, to uphold our principles, policies and ideas in the European political debate.
