Specialist in International law, professor emeritus at Stockholm University and at Swedish National Defense College Ove Bring urges Turkey to enter into dialogue with Armenians over the tragedy of 1915. “Modern Turkey is responsible for the incidents if 1915, as it is the same state, the successor of the Ottoman Turkey”, “Armenpress” reports the professor at Stockholm University announced this during “Against the Crime of Genocide” second global forum.

Ove Bring mentioned that according to international law, economic losses resulted by genocide must be recovered and compensated over time. “If there are some people who lost right to property, members of their families in Turkey can prove that their family had an economic lawsuit. They can apply to the European Court of Human Rights trying to prove that the mentioned lawsuit was never annulled, it continues to exist”, Bring said.
