The Parliament of South Ossetia is going to discuss the issue of the 1915 Armenian Genocide recognition in the upcoming session, reports “Armenpress”. “The Armenian Genocide recognition has been discussed in the Parliament of South Ossetia last year, however, the Parliament received the official application by the Armenian community on June 14”, press service of the Parliament informed “Interfax” on June 15.
“Some MPs said Armenia must also recognize the genocide of the Ossetian people, however, it is not principled. The important thing is that the representatives of the Armenian community are full members of the South Ossetian society, many of their representatives fought for the freedom and independence of our republic, shared with us all the difficulties during the war, and some of them are descendants of Armenians who survived the Genocide”, the press service informs. According to MPs, in case of the adoption of the application, “the historical and human justice will be restored towards the brotherly people who, as well as the South Ossetian people survived the horror of the genocide”.
