Czech President: Growing Level of ''Islamic Terrorism'' Is Connected with Armenian Genocide
Today’s growing level of international crime is connected with the genocide of Armenians, President of the Czech Republic Miloš Zeman has said at a Q&A session following his address to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE).
"The level of international crime is growing because of Islamic terrorism. I am open and frank, and I do not use the phrase "Islamic terrorism" lightly but, in the overwhelming majority of cases, it has Islamic origin. It is connected with genocide of Armenians," Mr. Zaman said, n response to a question from Armenian lawmaker Arpine Hovhannisyan, Public Radio of Armenia reports.
"I was heavily criticized when I declared the same thing as France did, for instance, but as the Assembly knows, the French Parliament even adopted a law about that genocide. On the other side, I have been criticized for having a good economic relationship with Azerbaijan. I am probably Jekyll and Hyde, but nobody knows who is Jekyll and who is Hyde," Miloš Zeman added.
