Our people , on the 1st<\/SUP> of April , renews its commitment to life , and looks forward to the future with optimism in spite of the difficulties in the way of the fulfillment of its legitimate national ambitions . This optimism is further enhanced ,on one <\/SPAN>hand , by the growing international concern about issue of democracy and human rights , rights of minorities and indigenous people , and on the other hand, by the increasing consciousness of people in the region ,including <\/SPAN>the intellectual and political elite ,of their rights and specificity and <\/SPAN>the importance of attaining <\/SPAN>them within the national framework which is considered as a <\/SPAN>pivot for the protection of diversity in a society , as well as a basis <\/SPAN>for building of a new and modern society. Concerning But , in spite of that <\/SPAN>, on the occasion of the anniversary of the 1st<\/SUP> of Nissan , our people looks forward to seeing the present Turkish government , in its endeavor to join the EU , taking a courageous step <\/SPAN>of recognizing the Genocide perpetrated against our people , the Armenians <\/SPAN>and others , at the beginning of the last century , as an initial step on her side to reconcile with her past <\/SPAN>and people , <\/SPAN>in addition to <\/SPAN>accepting <\/SPAN>all the binding obligations according to the <\/SPAN>international law resulting from this acknowledgement , such as the right of return , reclaiming the possessions , as well as constitutional recognition of our people’s national rights and a <\/SPAN>formal apology<\/SPAN> to the children and grandchildren of the victims of this <\/SPAN>unspeakable <\/SPAN>crime . But <\/SPAN>as a matter of fact, it is <\/SPAN>deplorable that the Turkish regime is currently doing just the opposite , by conducting a <\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>narrow chauvinistic and nationalistic propaganda <\/SPAN>through glorifying Genocide butchers like ” Talaat Pash ” and others ; <\/SPAN>this is causing great worry amongst our people and <\/SPAN>others who have suffered atrocities on the hands of successive Turkish regimes . As for Iraq , our people , just like all others in Iraq , have undergone <\/SPAN>great tragedies in the past years owing to rising terrorism and worsening of security situation to an extent that it threatens the outbreak of a civil war .On the 1st<\/SUP> of April, our people <\/SPAN>looks for success and progress in the political process and a formation of <\/SPAN>national government comprising of all <\/SPAN>national , religious and political components of the society without excluding any party ; a government capable of achieving national integration and ending abhorrent terrorism that has done great harm to all Iraqis without exception , a government that would lead the country to building <\/SPAN>a strong <\/SPAN>and prosperous state capable of controlling the security ,achieving stability and <\/SPAN>putting <\/SPAN>an end to the foreign occupation of Iraq . As far as Syria is concerned , our people on the 1st<\/SUP> of April is hoping to see a civil modern state <\/SPAN>, governed by law and institutions , a country for all its sons irrespective of any national or religious affiliations , under an umbrella of a unified national Syrian identity and on the principles of citizenship ; a country free from all forms of corruption , embezzlement , national superiority and disregard for others . Our people is looking forward to seeing a democratic , multiple and secular system based on principles of justice equality and laws of human rights , as well as , on the constitutional recognition of the rights of all the components of the Syrian society without exception . In this respect , our Organization sees that any attempt for real political reform <\/SPAN>in the country should be based on the following principles : 1-Abolishion of emergency law and all exceptional <\/SPAN>courts . 2-Releasing from prison all prisoners of conscience and political detainees and closing the file of political detainment <\/SPAN>once and for all . 3-Unleashing <\/SPAN>general freedoms and drafting democratic , modern <\/SPAN>laws for political parties ,unions and <\/SPAN>elections , taking into consideration political and national multiplicity , far from all forms <\/SPAN>of monopolization and state control . Laws that would<\/SPAN><\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>guarantee broader participation of the people in the national affairs . 4-Acknowledging the national diversity as well as recognizing our Assyrian Syriac Chaldean people as an indigenous one within the national framework <\/SPAN>. Moreover , recognizing the 1st<\/SUP> of April “Nissan” as one of the national days would be a step forward in the right direction . We , in the Assyrian Democratic Organization , and alongside the other patriotic forces seeking democratic changes in Syria , pledge ourselves to continue our struggle steadily and with various peaceful and civilized means to fulfill the above mentioned aims ,and further <\/SPAN>to work in order to <\/SPAN>lay the foundation of cooperation , understanding and national unity with <\/SPAN>all our partners in the country , Arabs , Kurds , Armenians and others , Moslem or Christian , deriving our determination and strength from our people and country . Finally , <\/I>on this occasion <\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>we extend our warmest congratulations and best wishes <\/SPAN>to all our people in the homeland and Diaspora and we invite them to go to nature an <\/SPAN>celebrate this day as an expression of our national pride , hoping that the <\/SPAN>new <\/SPAN>year would be a year of freedom and prosperity to all of them. – 6755 Assyrian calendar <\/FONT><\/o:p><\/SPAN> <\/P> Assyrian Democratic Organization Political Bureau ADO Damascus : Our Assyrian Syriac Chaldean people once again is celebrating its National Day , the Assyrian New Year on the 1st of April “Nissan”, inspired by high hopes and expectations arising from the noble ideals and values this day symbolizes .
