Bulgarian parliament voted down ATAKA party’s motion recognizing so called "Armenian genocide", Zaman reported.
The party called on the parliament to demand compensation from Turkey for the Bulgarians deported from Thrace, describe the events taking place in the Ottoman Empire in 1396-1913 as the Bulgarian Genocide and recognize the so called fact of "Armenian genocide".
The parliament rejected the motion, which “could have negative impact on the Bulgarian-Turkish relations.”
ATAKA party was formed in 2005 in Sofia. The party has 20 principles, including secession from NATO and abstention from taking part in military unions. It also opposes Bulragia’s membership in the European Union.
