The parliaments of 15 countries, in addition to the Greek Cypriot administration, which is not recognized by Turkey, have adopted resolutions upholding allegations of Armenian genocide at the hands of the late Ottoman Empire in the last century, Foreign Minister Abdullah Gül said yesterday.
The parliaments of Argentina, Germany, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, Canada, Lebanon, the Russian Federation, Slovakia, Uruguay, Greece and Poland along with the Greek Cypriot administration have adopted draft resolutions and statements regarding the alleged genocide, said Gül, responding to a written question from Hatay deputy Mehmet Eraslan from the opposition True Path Party (DYP).
Gül said the Foreign Ministry would take the diplomatic initiative and in a bid to hinder the adoption of such draft resolutions, would contact the ambassadors of the countries bringing the alleged genocide claims to the agenda of their national and local parliaments.
