BILL
to

This bill asks the UK Parliament to officially declare that the deaths of Armenians between 19151923, when the Ottoman Empire controlled the region, was genocide, meaning it was deliberately planned mass killing of a particular group of people. Currently, the UK has not made an official statement on this, though many countries including France and Germany have.

Presented by John Spellar.
