Dutch parliament passes motion urging government to recognize Armenian Genocide
The House of Representatives of the Netherlands has adopted a motion put forward by MP Joël Voordewind (ChristenUnie), calling on the Dutch government explicitly to recognize the Armenian Genocide, the Federation of Armenian Organizations in the Netherlands (FAON) reported.
Pleased with the clear ruling of the Dutch parliament, FAON said now it is the government’s move to finally recognize the Armenian Genocide.
The motion was adopted almost unanimously. This very broad support for the motion shows that for too long there has been great dissatisfaction in the parliament how the successive governments have dealt with the Armenian Genocide.
