The German Bundestag voted in Berlin, on Thursday, to recognise the killing of hundreds of thousands of Armenians and other Christian minorities in the Ottoman Empire as a 'genocide'. With only one vote and one abstention, the bill passed by a landslide.
Germany now joins over twenty countries, including Russia, Canada, France, who recognise it as a genocide.
During and after World War I, ethnic Armenians were displaced, deported or placed in concentration camps by authorities in the Ottoman Empire, now modern day Turkey. Between 600,000 and 1.8 million people are believed to have died during the period. However, the Turkish government reject the allegation that these deaths amounted to genocide.
