Bundestag resolution on 1915 events
The adoption of the resolution by Germany`s Bundestag (parliament) on recognizing the 1915 events as "Armenian genocide" is a big mistake, the `YeniSafak` newspaper quoted Turkey`s Prime Minister Binali Yildirim as saying June 2.
He pointed out that this resolution is unacceptable for Turkey.

Turkey is neither ashamed nor fears its history, added Yildirim.

Germany`s Bundestag adopted a resolution on recognizing the so-called Armenian genocide June 2. Previously, Turkey`s Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said that there has never been genocide in Turkey`s history.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan also previously said that the events of 1915 were a difficult time not only for Armenians, but also for Arabs, Kurds and representatives of other nations living in the country.

Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey`s predecessor, the Ottoman Empire, committed the so-called genocide against Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915. While strengthening the propaganda of "genocide" in the world, Armenians achieved its recognition by parliaments of some countries.
