For the attention of the members of the German Federal Parliament

For the attention of the members of the German Federal Parliament 19 May 2016 Esteemed Member of the German Federal Parliament, We have learnt of the developments relating to the possibility of the Armenian allegations being discussed in the German parliament. In the framework of international law, human rights, peace, stability and security we would like to bring some information to your attention. We address those who respect justice, sovereignty, democracy and freedoms and who wish to know the truth behind this issue. When did the Armenian issue come to the fore, what is the truth behind it? The Turks and Armenians came into contact with each other beginning in the 11th Century and these two peoples lived with each other in peace and tranquillity until the end of the 19th Century. The Armenian question began with the 1774 Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca and the article of the 1878 Berlin Treaty which permitted Russia, France, England and Germany to interfere in the domestic afairs of the Ottoman Empire as the protectorate of the Armenians. The Armenians began organising for an independent state as a result of the intrigues of the aforementioned states. Subsequently the Armenians began to establish armed revolutionary committees, the most notable of which are the Ramgavar Party founded in 1885, the Hunchak Party founded in 1886 and the Dashnak Party founded in 1890.
