NA Medal of Honour to František Mikloško
1 / 3

On February 14 the RA NA Speaker Samvel Nikoyan awarded František Mikloško, first Speaker of the National Council of Slovakia, NA Medal of Honour.

In his word, Mr Nikoyan has reminded those present that on November 30, 2004 the National Council of the Republic of Slovakia adopted a Resolution on Recognition of the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey in 1915, proving with it that the crime aimed at the annihilation and forced deprivation of Motherland of a whole nation has not time limitation, and the justice, thought with difficulty, paves its way, as there are political figures, countries and international structures fighting for it and accepting its inevitability. Mr Mikloško presented that proposal as a deputy in the parliament.

“About a year ago in the National Assembly of Armenia we hosted one more political figure, Pavol Hrušovský , former Speaker of the National Council of Slovakia, a fervent supporter of the Resolution condemning the Armenian Genocide from the Slovakian Parliament. Today our guest are you, honourable Mr Mikloško, and in the name of you we see dignified sons of the friendly Slovak people, figures classifying beyond political interests the fairness and truth and simply honest people, who are not indifferent towards the destiny of the peoples of the same faith and gravest crime perpetrated against human,” the NA Speaker noted.

In Samvel Nikoyan’s word, today the civilized world gradually gets convinced that the crime, even not condemning the people’s genocide, can give birth or become an occasion for new ones, if the criminal feels himself free and without punishment. According to the NA Speaker, the Slovak counterparts with their adopted Resolution are among the people, who are sure that today’s Turkey is not only responsible for the crime, but they should knock at Europe’s door cleansed and also later with the sincere guarantee of abstaining from crimes.

“Dear Mr Mikloško, I am glad that you are also among them with your all-human way of thinking, observing the truth as priority and considering it above everything. All this once again proved that as European observer, taking part in the elections held in the sovereign Republic of Nagorno Karabakh, which had paved the way of justice with its own efforts, not hearing the extortions of some people conditioned by political interest and Azerbaijan’s threats,” the NA Speaker said.

Thanking Samvel Nikoyan for high award František Mikloško expressed his warm liking towards the Armenian people, which, being the first nation adopting Christianity as a state religion, has the right to be proud of both by its built history and cultural heritage. According to Mr Mikloško, it’s a miracle that the Armenian people subjected to the Genocide in Ottoman Turkey, today outliving continues to build its independent statehood, and the whole Slovakia thinks like that. He is convinced that the European community should review its pages of the 20th century. In Mr Mikloško’s word, in the last century three anti-human realities have taken place: the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey, communist dictatorship and the establishment of fascism in Germany. In Slovak figure’s opinion, Europe should realize that the precedent of all this was the Armenian’s Genocide perpetrated just by Turkey.

According to Mr Mikloško, Europe should also adopt a decent position in the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh problem, as a nation lives here, which is inflexible to stand for its country, history, Christian and democratic values.
