BILL ON CENSURING ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN OTTOMAN TURKEY REJECTED IN CANADA
The committee on external relations of the House of Commons of Canada has rejected the resolution censuring the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey (with ratio of 5:6). As reported by "Azg" Armenian newspaper, the resolution rejection means that it will not be submitted for discussion at the House of Commons. Thereupon, Canadian parliament deputy Sargis Asadurian called the committee members to declare the vote results invalid.
