Czech President Milos Zeman says he will urge the Czech Parliament to follow the German Bundestag’s example and condemn the Armenian Genocide.
“I have expressed my stance over the issue of the Armenia Genocide since 2014 during Armenian President’s visit to the Czech Republic. In case of Nazy Germany’s victory, people of my country also could experience such sufferings, the history could repeat. I know that 10 EU member states have condemned the Genocide, from non-EU member states Russia and Canada did it. As a next step to this statement, I will call on the Czech Parliament to follow Germany’s example and issue such a statement”, the Czech President stated after the meeting with the Armenian President in Yerevan, reports Armenpress.am.
