BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — An Argentine judge ruled on Friday, April 1, that “the Turkish state committed the crime of genocide against the Armenian people” between 1915 and 1923.
The ruling Friday also says Turkey should help an Argentinean man of Armenian descent, Gregorio Hairabedian, to learn the fate of more than 50 of his relatives who disappeared nearly a century ago.
Judge Norberto Oyarbide ruled Friday that “the Turkish state committed the crime of genocide against the Armenian people” between 1915 and 1923.
