Middle East Research Institute President Yevgeny Satanovsky commented on the possibility of Israel's recognizing the Armenian Genocide, dubbed “mythical”, in Azeri media reports.

“Armenian Genocide is a true fact, which is in no way linked to Azerbaijan, having occurred in Ottoman Empire. At present, Knesset is responding to Turkish policy. For dozens of years, Turks demanded Israel to refrain from recognition of Genocide. The game is now finished,” Vesti.az cited the expert as saying.
