Let's not forget about the unrecognized Armenian Genocide, President of Uruguay Jose Mujica said while commemorating the victims of the Holocaust on Jan 27.
PrensaArmenia.com.ar quotes Mujica as saying that genocide is a real challenge to humanity. He confirmed his solidarity with the Jewish people but advised not to forget about the Armenian Genocide.
Last week Mujica received a group of Uruguayan Armenians. He accepted their invitation to join the committee organizing the events to commemorate the 100th year of the Armenian Genocide.
In 1965 Uruguay became the first country to recognize the Armenian Genocide.
