  Turkish diplomats abuse their authority in attempt to prevent Genocide recognition October 5, 2010 - 18:50 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - On September 30, Italian town of Spilimbergo hosted discussions on Armenian Genocide. Town authorities preferred to remain silent on the issue, reluctant to risk relations with Turkey. As the head of Friuli–Venezia Giulia region’s Armenian community Daniel Temrezian told PanARMENIAN.Net before the start of discussions, Turkish consul in Milan addressed a letter to Spilimbergo Mayor, stressing “inappropriateness” of using the “genocide” term in reference to extermination of 1,5million Armenians in Ottoman Empire. “Probably, yielding to the pressure of Turkish consul, Italian authorities also advised Spilimbergo Mayor to refrain from using the “genocide” term,” Temrezian stated, noting that the town Mayor will soon provide clarifications on the issue.
