The Swedish Parliament Recognizes the Armenian Genocide by the Turks.
Mar 11, 2010 at 06:26 PM
STOCKHOLM, March 11 (Itar-Tass) - Swedish parliament has adopted a resolution that recognizes the genocide of Armenians, Assyrians and Pontic Greeks in the Ottoman Empire in 1915.
The resolution was put up for voting Thursday morning and its discussion continued until almost the end of the workday.
The draft was submitted by opposition forces - the Left Party, the Green Party, the Social Democratic Workers' Party and several MPs from the Liberal People's Party and the Christian Democratic Party.
The resolution was endorsed by a slight majority of votes. It recognizes the extermination of 1.5 million Armenians, 250,000 to 500,000 Assyrians and about 350,000 Pontic Greeks in the last phase of Turkey's imperial history.
