    ARMENIAN GENOCIDE EXPOSITION AT RWANDA MEMORIAL

    During her recent visit to Rwandan capital of Kigali, Susanna Den,
    adviser at the US Agency for International Development, was pleasantly
    surprised to see an Armenian Genocide exposition at the local Genocide
    Memorial. She told this to The Armenian Mirror Spectator correspondent.

    The Memorial opened in 2004 to mark the 10th anniversary of
    genocide in Rwanda and is largely dedicated to the memory of
    250.000 victims. However, the Memorial also represents the history
    of genocides. The Memorial came into being thanks to the efforts of
    Kigali~Rs Municipal Board and British Aegis Trust. Already 60.000
    people have visited the Memorial since it opened its doors. To
    remind, the Aegis Trust demanded on April 24 of this year the British
    authorities to exert pressure on Turkey to recognize the Armenian
    genocide.

    I want to ask here: how many people in Armenia know about the Rwandan
    genocide?
