Following the Early Day Motion calling on the UK government to recognize the Armenian Genocide in May and the subsequent introduction of John Spellar’s Genocide Recognition bill, the second reading at the UK House of Commons is provisionally scheduled for Friday 10th December, the Armenian National Committee of UK informs.
