Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian has issued a statement, expressing gratitude to Bolivia for recognizing the Armenian Genocide.

“We express our gratitude to both Chambers of the Parliament, the government and people of Bolivia for the recognition of the Armenian Genocide committed in the Ottoman Turkey,” the Minister said.

“Ahead of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, Bolivia by this step has brought its important input in the noble cause of restoration of historical justice, recognition, condemnation, prevention of crimes against humanity and in the fight against denial,” Minister Nalbandian stated.

Both Chambers of the Plurinational Legislative Assembly of Bolivia unanimously passed a resolution recofnizing the Armenian Genocide and condemning its denial.

1. Good for Bolivia. This is an extremely important step. If I recall correctly, the United States has

not recognized the Armenian genocide and this is a national embarrassment akin to denying the Holocaust.

2. Really! It's not surprising, all considered. Maybe the US puts Turkey first for military strategy.

When a country has something useful, its leaders can do anything in the world to the human race and no one in power here gives a flying ####, as with Islam Karimov, the monsters who BOILS political enemies, in Uzbekistan.

Thanks for the insight.
