Not just recognized, but:

The agreement meets the three demands that Namibia made in the negotiations with Germany:

The recognition of the crimes against the Herero and Nama as genocide,
an apology from the German state and a request for forgiveness from the Namibian state and the descendants of the victims
Compensation payments.
