ISTANBUL-BORN ARMENIAN HISTORIAN IN LIMELIGHT OF TURKISH TV
Istanbul-born Armenian historian Levon Panos Tapakhian has denied the
fact of the Armenian Genocide. On November 3, the Turkish television
posted the historian's denial on its website under the title "Armenian
Historian's Truth Is Completely Different.
Even Armenians Oppose the French Lie."
According to the website, Tapakhian delivered a lecture on
Armenian Genocide at Istanbul's municipal department of People's
Democratic Party. He underscored that the Armenian issue refers to
the Turkish-Armenians and the Turks and that the so-called Armenian
genocide allegations were invented by the Western powers which keep
speculating the issue.
Rounding off Tapakhian said: "Armenians underwent deportation from the
Ottoman Empire. The West now calls this incident, which is described
as deportation, genocide. There was no such thing. It was a deportation
not genocide."
