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, thethe Holocaust of 1915".
True to tradition today's British government continue to turn a blind
eye to Turkey's genocidal policies towards Armenia."
