Azatutyun. Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar has announced that he will present a draft resolution recognizing the Armenian Genocide at the next cabinet meeting.
«Recognizing the genocide perpetrated against the Armenian people during the final years of the Ottoman Empire is a moral and historical obligation, - Sa'ar wrote on X, continuing: - At the same time, it is appropriate to condemn any denial, trivialization, or distortion of historical truth».
After receiving government approval, the draft will be sent to the parliament, the Foreign Minister reported.
In the summer of 2025, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Great Genocide of 1915. In response to journalist Patrick Bet-David's question about why no Israeli prime minister has recognized the genocide against Armenians carried out by the Ottoman Empire in the early 20th century, Netanyahu replied, «I just did. Here you go».
