On April 24 the government officials of NKR visited the memorial of
Stepanakert. NKR President Arkady Ghukasyan stated that evil must
be punished not to reoccur. Speaker Ashot Ghulyan stated that not
only the government of Armenia but also the leadership of Karabakh
is entitled to pursue the international recognition of the genocide.
"We have expectations too, and I think the connections of the
parliament, the parliamentary relations must be used for the
international recognition of the genocide. The wall of silence has been
demolished, and I think in the upcoming years it will become deeper
and finally there will be a general recognition of the genocide,"
said the speaker of the National Assembly of NKR.
Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan says this day must be an axis of
solidarity and responsibility. "Turkey must realize that after
recognizing the genocide it can establish friendly relations with
neighbors and be internationally accepted as a democratic state,"
stated the minister. He also emphasized that if we had a strong army
in the early 20th century, we could have prevented the crime.
"With respect to this the army is the main guarantee of security of
Armenia," said the minister.
