TURKEY DENYING ARMENIAN GENOCIDE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS “UNPAID DEBT TO HUMANITY,” GREEK PARLIAMENT SPEAKER SAID

The Turkish government’s denial of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Turkey in 1915 should be considered as “an unpaid debt to the humanity.” Greek parliament speaker Apostolos Kaklamanis said at a measure devoted to the 88-th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide the other day. As reported by “Arminfo” agency referring to Greek media, in the course of the measure the ex-minister of foreign affairs of Greece Teodoros Pangalos noted Turkey was still capable of such crimes against humanity. “One denying an evident crime is always ready to commit it again,” – he added.
