MEMORIAL TO VICTIMS OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ERECTED IN GERMANY
Arsen Narimanian, resident of Bremen, Germany, sent a letter to Azg and
informed that Bremen also commemorated 90th Anniversary of the Armenian
Genocide on April 24. In addition to numerous arrangements organized
throughout the world, a khachqar (cross-stone) monument standing two meters
and dedicated to the memory of the innocent victims of 1915 was opened in
the center of Bremen.
"The Truth should always win," priest Serob Isakhanian said after
consecrating the memorial. He also called for the German Turks that were
standing in some meters and trying to hinder the arrangement not to take any
provoking action.
Henning Scherf, mayor of Bremen, welcomed the initiative of the Armenian
community of Northern Germany, stating that millions of Armenians became the
innocent victims of the genocide. "I must commemorate the innocent victims
among our society. We, the Germans, have our share of gilt in this crime.
It's high time for all of us to realize that and accept our errs committed
in the past. We should respect each other," Mayor of Bremen said.
