Germany made steps to recognize theArmenian genocide in 2005, during the rule of the Social Democrat-Green coalition led by ChancellorGerhard Schröder. However, while calling onTurkey to accept its "historic responsibility", the German government declined to use the word "genocide". During theCold War, the need to keep Turkey's support had causedNATO members such asWest Germany to ignore the topic.[2][3] In 2015, public discussion about the Armenian genocide and the explicit usage of the term "genocide" in official language has been renewed in Germany.
In March 2015, theGerman Federal Foreign Office reported positive political, economic and cultural relations between both countries.[4]
