13:59 22.02.2014
The Armenian National Committee (CNA) of South America held a series
of meetings with Swiss representatives of Argentina and Uruguay to
express the concern of the community regarding the ruling of the
European Court of Human Rights in the case "Perincek vs Switzerland,"
Agencia Prensa Armenia reported.
The CNA handed a letter to every Swiss representative stressing the
"damaging consequences that could bring this ruling, not only for the
fight for recognition and reparations of the Armenian Genocide, but
also for the whole rules and principles of the international laws
regarding Human Rights". That is why we respectfully ask, through you,
the Swiss State to appeal the ruling of the European Court of Human
Rights", added the letter.
On 13 February the CNA of Uruguay met with the Swiss ambassador in
Uruguay Didier Pfirter, who was fully aware of the Armenian issue and
the just rights and claims of the Armenian people, because, in his
words, he has been interested for years in the issues related to the
Armenian Genocide. The Ambassador promised to deliver the letter to
his government.
On 14 February the CNA of Buenos Aires, capital of Argentina, handed
the letter to the Swiss ambassador in Argentina Johannes Matyassy, and
on 20 February the CNA of Córdoba, province of Argentina, met with the
Honorary Consul of Switzerland in Cordoba Dr. Ricardo J. Rysler,
handed the letter and also the interview that Prensa Armenia conducted
to Dr. Sévane Garibian.
