The Portuguese parliament recognizes the Armenian Genocide
The Portuguese Parliament voted overwhelmingly on Friday to recognize the Armenian Genocide, saying in a resolution passed at the Assembly of the Republic that “the systematic extermination by the Ottoman authorities directed at the Armenian minority in its territory is considered by the international community of historians as the first genocide of the twentieth century.”
As Asbarez.com reports, the resolution is backed by all political forces represented in the parliament and serves as a remembrance of the victims of the Armenian Genocide.
“This remembrance should serve as a lesson for our time, because, given the current level of nationalism, xenophobia and intolerance worldwide, it is essential to remember the tragedies of the past. It is also through the culture of memory that the Assembly is committed to upholding human rights and emphasize the importance of strengthening dialogue among peoples, religions, cultures and civilizations,“ the resolution said.
The text of the resolution is posted on the parliament website.
