correspondent of the "Independent" newspaper in the Middle East Robert
Fisk came forward with a speech dedicated to the "Armenian Holocaust,"
as he characterized it.
The recent book by Robert Fisk titled "Great War for Civilization"
includes a chapter on the Armenian Genocide titled "The First
Holocaust." The author presented his own activity for gathering facts
about the Armenian Genocide.

activity he was exiled from Turkey in early 1990s. Fisk attached great
importance to the recognition of the Armenian Genocide, considering
it as a precondition for Turkey's accession to the European Union. The
book will soon be published in Turkey, and the author has already been
cautioned that he may be called to responsibility in compliance with
Article 301 of the Penal Code. The journalist declared it will be a
great honor for his to defend his correctness before the Turkish Court.
