Commission Question: Subject: Armenian genocide and Turkey pre-accession funding As we approach the 100th anniversary of the Armenian genocide, does the EU intend to raise the issue of Turkey’s laws which prohibit discussion of the Armenian genocide? Does the Commission feel it is appropriate to give pre-accession funding to a country which refuses to acknowledge war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide perpetrated against the Armenian people?
The European Parliament is to urge Turkey to “come to terms
with its past” on the “Armenian Genocide” 100 years after it took place.
