Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has first announced that he recognizes the Genocide against Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks at the beginning of the 20th century, according to The Times of Israel.

To the question why Israel did not recognize the Armenian Genocide, Netanyahu answered. "I think they have recognized. I think the Knesset has adopted a resolution on it. "

To the question why no prime minister of Israel recognized the genocide, Netanyahu answered. "I just recognized it."

The Times of Israel reminds that Armenians have long striving for international recognition of the Genocide, as a result of some information, about 1.5 million Armenians killed. Turkey rejects the claim that the mass killings, imprisonment and violent deportation are genocide.

In 2001, when relations with Turkey were in the worst condition, then Foreign Minister Shimon Peres openly rejected the allegations of Armenians, calling them as an attempt to hold parallels with the Holocaust.

"Nothing happened like the Holocaust. The Armenians who experienced was a tragedy, but not genocide, "he said.
