The issue of the international acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide is part of Argentine’s policy and not a fragmentary demand. ARF Dashnaktsutyun member and Vice President of the Socialist International’s (SI) Committee for the CIS, the Caucasus and the Black Sea, Mario Nalbandian, told the aforementioned to Armenian News – NEWS.am correspondent.
“We have been struggling for many years and can now definitely say that any party and politician in Argentine takes the issue of the Armenian Genocide very seriously. The newly-appointed president used to be the Mayor of Buenos Aires and always supported us over the 8 years of work. The wave for the acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide has risen in South America and it must continue,” Nalbandian said.
According to him, after the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide it’s necessary to shift to a new stage, where legal requirements will be presented. According to Nalbandian, the struggle of Armenians served as an example for other nations.
