    MONUMENT TO ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN CYPRUS

    On May 1, according to Cyprian "Philiephteros" newspaper, a monument
    dedicated to the Armenian Genocide was erected in Larnaca (Cyprus).

    The opening ceremony will be held in June, Turkish press
    reported. Armenian delegation led by RA President Serge Sargsian will
    participate in the opening ceremony.

    The decision on raising a monument to the Armenian Genocide was made
    by Larnaca Municipality. Cyprus Parliament and Government members
    affirmed the decision unanimously.

    Apparently, the monument is created in Armenia, and according to the
    supposition of Turkish press on April 1 it was in port Larnaca.

    To recall, the foundation of the monument was laid by former President
    of Armenia Robert Kocharian.
