User blog:RSangHyun/Maybe there is still a bit of hope this year

So April was a godawful month, or so we thought. Because on that month, something happened that I'd never thought would happen in a long time. Libya recognizes the Armenian Genocide.

It happened today on afternoon, I was checking the Armenian Genocide recognition map and I noticed something different.



I looked at Africa and thought "Huh, that wasn't there before. Wait, Libya??". I'd never imagined Libya to make a decision that takes a lot of balls, especially when it may threaten relations with Turkey.

So I thank Libya for being the third Arab country after Lebanon and Syria to recognize the Armenian Genocide.

The next country I'd expect to make the move is Egypt since the president urges the country to recognize it.

Update: Oh, and Portugal too recognizes the genocide on the same month. Thanks Portugal!
