Israeli and Serbian Parliaments to Discuss Armenian Genocide Bills

The Israeli parliament is planning to hold discussions on a bill that recognizes the Armenian Genocide.

As reported by Israeli press, in April, Meretz Party will once again bring the bill on Armenian Genocide to the Knesset agenda for a vote.

The bill prepared by party leader Haim Oron condemns the killings of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915 and calls it Genocide.

The party had raised the issue of recognizing the Armenian Genocide in the past too, though all attempts had proven to be unsuccessful.

In addition, Serbia’s Parliament is preparing to discuss a draft version of a bill, proposed by Serbia Radical Party, which recognizes the Armenian Genocide.

Party press spokesperson Zoran Krasi said that the bill will be brought to the parliament agenda in the near future.
