“The government of Israel took the brave step and fulfilled a historic duty by recognizing the genocide suffered by the Armenians in the final years of the Ottoman Empire”.
This is emphasized by former prime minister Antonis Samaras, who adds:
“Every free person now expects the next step as well. Namely, recognition by Israel of the genocide of the Greeks of Pontus, Thrace and Asia Minor.
Such a thing will constitute a decisive bulwark against Erdogan’s neo-Ottoman expansionist plans directed against Greece, Cyprus, Israel and the brave Kurdish people.
The Greek government ought to make use of the circumstance and convey to the government of Israel its firm support for such an initiative”.
