Spokesperson of the Turkish Foreign Ministry has rejected a latest European Parliament report on EU-Armenia relations, which made some allegations close to the 1915 occasions.
“It is seen that the European Parliament insists on including baseless allegations about our country and the 1915 events in its ordinary report,” Tanju Bilgic mentioned on Friday.
“These views, which are incompatible with historical facts and international legal norms, have no validity for us,” he added.
He requested the European Parliament “to act in accordance with political morality and international law, rather than repeating such unilateral and baseless claims.”
Türkiye’s place on the occasions of 1915 is that the deaths of Armenians in jap Anatolia came about when some sided with invading Russians and revolted in opposition to Ottoman forces. A subsequent relocation of Armenians resulted in quite a few casualties.
Türkiye objects to the presentation of the incidents as “genocide” however describes the 1915 occasions as a tragedy wherein either side suffered casualties.
Ankara has repeatedly proposed the creation of a joint fee of historians from Türkiye and Armenia plus worldwide consultants to deal with the difficulty.
