The Foreign Relations Committee of the European Parliament registered
the suggestions of the Committee members to implement changes in the
recurrent report on Turkey's accession to the European Union.
Chairwoman of the European Armenian Federation Hilda Tchoboyan told
Armenpress that the Committee registered eight suggestions of the
Federation, as well.
"The changes we suggest mostly refer to the isolation of Armenia
by Turkey, the Armenian Genocide, the domestic situation in Turkey
connected with hatred towards foreigners, especially the anti-Armenian
moods," Hilda Tchoboyan said. She added that the voting day will be
determined after the suggestions are discussed.
The European Armenian Federation informs that a number of members of
the European Parliament spoke for inclusion of the Armenian Genocide
issue in the recurrent resolution on Turkey's accession to the EU,
including member of the People's Party of Europe Charles Tennock,
members of the French Socialist Party Marie Arlett Rore and Harlem
Desir, and others.
It should be mentioned that the recurrent report on Turkey includes
no reference to the Armenian Issue. During the first discussion of the
draft on September 13 a number of members of the Committee pointed to
the faultiness of the report. In particular, Belgian MP Philip Claeys
noted: "The recurrent report on the process of Turley's accession to
the European Union must certainly refer to the Armenian Genocide."
