Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has condemned the decision of the Bundestag (German Parliament) resolution recognizing the events of 1915 as the so-called "Armenian genocide", Anadolu agency reported.

The organization also said that it will take a needed diplomatic initiative for the right study of the historical realities by young people of Europe, as well as of the member countries of the OIC.

The German parliament adopted June 2 a resolution recognizing the 1915 events as the "Armenian genocide".

Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor, the Ottoman Empire, committed the so-called genocide against Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915.

While strengthening the propaganda of "genocide" in the world, Armenians achieved its recognition by parliaments of some countries.
