    Wales-Armenia Solidarity
    Solidarite Pays de Galles- Armenie
    Press Release

    http://www.crag.org.uk/events/event14.html


    On the Eve of Holocaust Memorial Day,The Political, Cultural, and
    Religious Elite of Wales once more gather in Solidarity with the
    Armenian and Jewish victims of Turkish and Nazi Crimes against
    Humanity

    At The Temple of Peace, Cardiff, capital of Wales, a nation emerging
    from 700 years of English misrule, on 26th january, representatives of
    all Religious denominations, the President of the National Cultural
    Festival and the leaders all political parties, including the First
    Minister of the National Assembly Rhodri Morgan gather to commemmorate
    the Armenian victims of genocide perpetrated by the Turkish State in
    1894-96, 1909, and 1915-23 (and the Jewish victims of the1939-45
    Holocaust). On this issue unanimity of opinion has been reached and
    this establishes a moral challenge to the U.K. government's position
    of conniving to aid Turkey's accesion into the European Union without
    any pre-condition of Recognition of its past crimes against the
    Armenian nation. The main speaker will be Mike Joseph, the authority
    on the close connection between the Armenian Genocide and the Jewish
    Holocaust. Welsh and Armenian choirs will participate at this
    occassion.

    It was the Welshman David Lloyd George, who was Prime minister of
    Britain from 1916-22, who recognised Britain's guilt in the matter. He
    wrote in 1932 in "The Truth about Peace Treaties": " It was the
    actions of the British government that led to the massacres of
    1894-96, 1909 and worst of all, the the Holocaust of 1915". True to
    tradition today's British government continue to turn a blind eye to
    Turkey's genocidal policies towards Armenia.
