Turkish oppositional parties\u2019 MPs from National Unity and Republican People\u2019s Party intend to come up with a lawsuit against the states, that recognized Armenian Genocide of 1915 in Ottoman Empire, Turkish Hurriyet reads.<\/p>\n

The final decision on the matter should be made by Turkish government, that is yet silent.<\/p>\n

According to the Republican MP Sukru Elekdag, international court should give a precise response to Turkey about its fault. He reckons that both countries\u2019 parliaments break assumption of innocence, accusing Turkey of the genocide: \u201cI suppose that if we achieve the international out-of-court settlement, extensive work should be done to establish our case.\u201d<\/p>\n

He deems the states, that already recognized the fact of genocide should realize the meaning of the word and determine whether one state can accuse the other of such a crime.<\/p>\n
