The Head of the Italian delegation to the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly
Riccardo Migliori, accompanied by Italy's Ambassador to Armenia Bruno
Scapini, visited Tsitsernakaberd today to pay tribute to the memory of
the Armenian Genocide victims.
`I'm here to pay tribute to the victims of the tragedy that occurred
95 years ago and prevent the reoccurrence of such events in the
future,' the Italian official said, reminding that the Parliament of
Italy recognized the Armenian Genocide in 2000.
Ambassador Scapini said there is a great Armenian community in his
country and they are holding Genocide commemoration events there
today. `I think, Italians are participating in these events with the
challenge of their conscience for centuries-long amity of the Armenian
and Italian people,' Bruno Scapini said, adding that Italians must
share the grief of their friends.
According to him, Italy is among the countries that propagate the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide. `We continue working with
different countries and international structures to push the
recognition of the Armenian genocide forward,' the Ambassador said.
