    MEDVEDEV COMMEMORATES VICTIMS OF ARMENIANS' GENOCIDE

    Interfax News Agency
    Oct 21 2008
    Russia

    Russian President Dmitry Medvedev visited the memorial to the
    victims of the genocide of Armenians located in the Yerevan park
    Thitsernakaberd on Tuesday morning.

    Medvedev laid down a wreath of red roses to the memorial and visited
    the History Museum, where photos, documents, and other evidence of
    the tragedy are displayed.

    Among the exhibits displayed in the museum is the text of the State
    Duma statement issued in 1995, which "condemns the organizers of the
    genocide of Armenians" expressing sympathy with the people of Armenia.

    Medvedev wrote the following words in the museum's Book of Honored
    Guests: "The museum of the Armenians' genocide is evidence of
    a horrible tragedy of the 20th century and at the same time is
    a reminder of the fact that life is the main value that is to be
    protected by civilized peoples."
