The Bureau of Yabloko Russian Democratic Party, issued a statement on the occasion of the Armenian Genocide 90-th anniversary.

The residents of the Russian town of Budennovsk called upon the town duma to recognize the Armenian Genocide.

Preparatory works, preceding the adoption of the "Armenian resolution" by the lower house of the Polish parliament did not take long. Official Ankara did not even manage to undertake any actions to intervene the consideration of the issue at the Seym. In the nearest future the resolution will be submitted to the upper chamber. There is no doubt that the resolution will be passed very quickly in the upper chamber too. Thus, we can assert that already 17 countries of the world consider Armenian genocide as an incontestable fact. Before Poland the genocide was officially recognized by the legislative bodies of France, Russia, Canada, Italy, Vatican, Switzerland, Sweden, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Cyprus, Slovakia, Uruguay, Argentina and Lebanon.
