Israeli Opposition Leader Called Netanyahu to Recognize the Armenian Genocide

Miriam Alster/FLASH90

Israeli opposition leader once again called the government to recognize the Armenian Genocide and support the Kurds.

"Yesh Atid'' head Yair Lapid criticized Netanyahu’s handling of Turkey, saying that the agreement with that country reached in 2016 to put an end to the Mavi Marmara affair was a mistake, News.am reports, referring to the Jerusalem Post .

At a press briefing with diplomatic correspondents, Lapid said that Israel should stop "humiliating itself" before the Turks and has to recognize the Armenian Genocide.  Lapid added that "putting gas in Erdogan's hands" is a crazy move.

Earlier Lapid said his party would lodge a bill in the Knesset recognizing the Armenian genocide.
