Proposed adoption:

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the forced deportations, massacres and other assaults on Armenians that took place in eastern Anatolia in the period 1915-23, the Parliament emphasizes the importance of respecting the rights of all national, ethnic and religious minorities in the region. The Parliament expresses hope that reconciliation and normalization of Armenia-Turkey relations can be encouraged, calls on both governments to work towards this, and notes that a continued improvement in Turkey's respect for the country's ethnic, religious and national minorities could contribute to this.
