PanARMENIAN.Net - Members of foreign parliaments who acknowledged the Armenian Genocide are surprised and outraged over Turkish Prime Minister’s statements, former speaker of Slovakian parliament Pavol Hrusovsky stated.

As he noted in a conversation with FAAE (Forum of Armenian Associations of Europe) chairman Ashot Grigoryan, Turkish PM has no right to accuse European parliaments who give political assessment to massacres of Armenians perpetrated by Turkey though Genocide recognition, FAAE told PanARMENIAN.Net

On April 14, Slovakian delegation led by Pavol Hrusovsky will visit Armenian Genocide memorial to commemorate the massacre victims. “Ankara speaks against unfair and one-sided parliamentary resolutions on recognition of Armenian Genocide,” Turkish Prime Minister stated at George Mason University in Fairfax, VA.
