/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian Genocide was organized equally by
Russia and Turkey, historian Rafael Hambartsumyan stated in
Yerevan. In his words, when speaking of the Armenian Genocide several
important and concealed facts should be emphasized. `30 years before
the Genocide Russia put the slogan `Armenia without Armenians' into
the mouth of prince Golitsyn,' the Armenian historian said.
According to Hambartsumyan Russia always used Armenians for its own
ends. During the World War II Russia indirectly abetted Turkey in
perpetrating the Genocide by sending over 200 thousand soldiers to the
Russian-German front.
`As result of Moscow Treaty of 1921 Eastern Armenia was almost
completely occupied and divided between Turkey, Azerbaijan and
Georgia. The main purpose of the Treaty was the elimination of the
Armenian Republic,' he said
