Gennady Udovenko: Armenian Genocide is the greatest tragedy of humanity

PanARMENIAN.Net - Who better than us, Holodomor survivors, are capable of understanding the tragedy of the Armenian nation? Genocide is the greatest tragedy of humanity, to which half of Armenian nation was lost, ex-Foreign Minister of Ukraine Gennady Udovenko stated.

“Though many states and international institutions have officially recognized the Genocide, Ukraine, did not, with its position linked to those of her close partners, Turkey and Azerbaijan. However, Russia’s example proved it possible to recognize the Armenian Genocide while managing to preserve good relations with the two states indicated,” Udovenko pointed out.

“It is necessary that the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide be marked with its official recognition. Ukraine can’t demand recognition of Holodomor while refusing to recognize the Genocide on governmental level,” analitika.at.ua cited the ex-Foreign Minister as saying.
