Türkiye‘s ambassador to the United Nations rejected a declare by Armenia on Monday in regards to the 1915 occasions.
Reacting to the Armenian declare of ”genocide” at a UN Security Council assembly, Sedat Önal referred to as the allegation ”baseless.”
Türkiye’s place on the occasions of 1915 is that the deaths of Armenians in jap Anatolia happened when some sided with the invading Russians and revolted towards Ottoman forces. A subsequent relocation of Armenians resulted in quite a few casualties.
”We name on everyone to think about our Joint Historical Commission proposal and regional peace and cooperation initiatives fairly than drawing animosity from historical past,” Önal stated.
Ankara has repeatedly proposed the creation of a joint fee of historians from Türkiye and Armenia in addition to worldwide consultants to deal with the difficulty.
