In the near future, another European country is expected to recognize
the Armenian Genocide. Head of the Hay Dat European Office, Member of
Hay Dat (The Armenian Cause) commission in Greece Gaspar Karapetyan
told reporters, a REGNUM correspondent reports. Karapetyan is
participating in an Hay Dat conference in Yerevan on March 12. He
refused to say which country intends to recognize the genocide,
saying that from the point of view of its territory the country is
not that large, however, it takes a special position in Europe and
plays substantial role in European processes.
Commenting on the verdict imposed by Swiss court to leader of the
Turkish Labor Party Dogu Perincek for denial of the Armenian Genocide,
he noted that it once again confirmed impossibility of unpunished
denial of a historical fact.
Speaking on Hay Dat's achievements in Europe, Karapetyan cited
recognition of the Armenian Genocide by Greece, where on April 24,
according to him, for several years running people have been revering
memory of the Armenian Genocide victims.
