Turkish Prime Minister scorned Wednesday the adoption of two resolutions by the Swedish parliament and a U.S. House panel recognizing the Armenian Genocide, Anatolian News Agency reported.
“Turkey had nothing in its past to be ashamed of,” Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in a televised address to the nation.
“Neither Sweden nor the United States had nothing to do with the incidents that occurred nearly a century ago. And once you make history a mere tool for politics, you might never be able to find the truth again," he said. “Turkey has always stated that history should be left up to historians.”
