Baku, Azerbaijan, Apr. 29
By Rufiz Hafizoglu - Trend:
Sweden deferred a decision on the recognition of the 1915 events as the so-called Armenian genocide, the Turkish news agency Anadolu said April 29.
The message said that the Swedish government adheres to a neutral position on the events of 1915 and calls for their investigation.
Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor, the Ottoman Empire allegedly carried out "genocide" against the Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915. Turkey in turn has always denied "the genocide" took place. While strengthening the efforts to promote the "genocide" in the world, Armenians have achieved its recognition by the parliaments of some countries.
