    ARMENIAN GENOCIDE, EHCR, SWITZERLAND

    17:06 03.02.2014

    On January 30th, 2014, initiated by the Armenian National Committee of
    Romania (ANC Romania) and at the behest of His Eminency Bishop Datev
    Hagopian, Primate of Armenian Apostolic Church in Romania, a meeting
    was held with the ambassador of Switzerland, H.E. Jean Hubert Lebet,
    in the Armenian Prelacy of Romania, the European Armenian Federation
    for Justice and Democracy (EAFJD) reports.

    The objective of the meeting was to discuss the necessity of
    Switzerland to appeal the ECHR verdict on Dogu Perincek vs Switzerland
    case, as of December 17th, 2013. Perincek was condemned by the Federal
    court of Switzerland for denial of the Armenian Genocide and his
    claims that "the genocide is an international lie."

    The meeting was assisted by Mr. Paul Hagopian, representative of the
    ANC Romania, Mr. Varoujan Voskanian, president of Armenian Union of
    Romania, Mr. Varoujan Pamboukjian, member of the National Assembly of
    Romania, the reverend father Ezras Bogdan and reverend father Hetoum
    Tarverdian, the spiritual pastors of Bucharest and Pitesht.

    The importance of the acceptance and condemning of the Armenian
    Genocide was raised once again during the meeting. The participants
    made loud their voices of protest against the declarations of Perincek,
    that "the events of 1915 are not genocide". The protest was stated
    in the form of letter handed over to the ambassador, who expressed
    his concerns over the issue.
