Netanyahu Delayed Armenian Genocide Debate

972mag.com

Israely Prime Minister Benjamin Netnayahu delayed a ministerial debate of motions to officially recognize the Armenian genocide, The Times of Israel reports.

The Foreign Ministry said it had advised that going ahead with the initiative could help Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's reelection campaign. In a statement, the ministry said that Netanyahu had accepted a recommendation to postpone debating legislation on recognizing the genocide until after the June 24 Turkish elections, "because holding the debate on its original schedule might serve Erdogan in his campaign."
