    ISRAELI GOVERNMENT REJECTS DRAFT RESOLUTION ON RECOGNITION OF ARMENIAN
    GENOCIDE

    Baku 7 May


    Israeli government rejected a draft resolution on recognition of the
    so called Armenian genocide, according to the Turkish press.

    A statement issued by the country`s Cabinet of Ministers says it is
    our duty to commemorate the memory of those who died during World War
    I. But it is impossible to discuss historical events under the name of
    Armenian genocide at parliamentary level.

    It goes on to say only historians should deal with historical events.

    The draft resolution was submitted to the country`s parliament
    (Knesset) by Mp Haim Oron on April 24.
