Germany shouldn't sacrifice relations with Turkey for the 1915 events, President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, the TRT Haber news channel reported May 31.
He said there has never been genocide in the history of Turkey.
Erdogan added that he discussed the issue with the German Chancellor Angela Merkel May 31.
Earlier, it was reported that the German parliament plans to adopt a resolution recognizing the 1915 events as "genocide of Armenians".
Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor, the Ottoman Empire, committed the so-called genocide against Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915.
