Tel Aviv. Anakhanim Hidayatova - APA. "The issue of recognition of the â€œArmenian Genocideâ€ was raised several times in the Knesset. I believe that these issues should be solved in academies and forums at the level of scholars and also based on historical facts. Israel should not be involved in internal policies of Armenia and Turkey,â€ said Alex Miller, an Israeli politician and member of the Knesset for Yisrael Beiteinu (Israel is Our Home)

According to him the Knesset also can not prohibit MPs to raise the issue as Israel is a democratic country.

The MP also stressed importance to extend inter-parliamentarian relations between Israel and Azerbaijan.
"We will be happy if Israeli parliamentarians visit Azerbaijan and vice versa. It will deepen the relations between the countries. In addition, it is possible to simplify the visa regime for certain groups of citizens of Azerbaijan, for example, students, teachers, civil servants and it can lead full visa-free entry for citizens of Azerbaijan in the future. "

Alex Miller also emphasized the importance of the Chamber of Commerce between the two countries, that will function soon. Talking cooperation at the international level Miller expressed his hope that Baku can mediate in the normalization of relations between Israel and Turkey.
