ArmInfo. A state that did not exist when the Armenian Genocide was committed in the Ottoman Empire has decided to assess the Israeli government's recognition of this crime against humanity.
The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry, in a statement, stated that the Israeli government's decision on the Armenian Genocide raises "serious concern."
Furthermore, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry, which deserves an award for the number of times it falsifies historical reality, stated that "distorting the historical truth about the events of 1915" and turning complex historical processes into a political decision, far removed from legal and scientific foundations, is unacceptable.
"Such steps do not promote reconciliation and mutual understanding, but rather further deepen existing contradictions and hinder efforts to ensure sustainable peace and reconciliation in the region. We call on the Israeli government to reconsider its decision. Azerbaijan will continue to consistently maintain its position in protecting historical truth, respecting the principles of international law, and promoting sustainable peace in the region," the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said in a statement. However, it did not specify what historical truth Baku is referring to.
As previously reported, on June 28, the Israeli government unanimously recognized the mass killings of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire during World War I as Genocide. The initiative was put forward by Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar. The document will now be submitted to the Knesset for approval.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry sharply criticized this Israeli initiative.
