    True perpetrators and organizers of the Armenians massacre in
    Adana still remain unpunished, Director of the Armenian Genocide
    Institute-Museum Hayk Demoyan said at today's press-conference timed
    to the 100th anniversary of the Armenians massacre in the Turkish
    province of Adana.

    He thinks the massacre of Armenians in Adana ahs actually become a
    medium link among massacres of Armenians under the regime of sultan
    Abdul-Hamid and the Armenian Genocide of 1915. Moreover, the historian
    emphasized that a precise programme on extermination of Armenians
    existed, which remained unchanged both under the sultan regime of
    Abdul-Hamid and the Kemalists.

    H. Demoyan emphasized in his report that extermination of the
    Armenian population in Adana in April 1909 is a documentary-confirmed
    fact. 'This is mentioned not only in the official Armenian documents
    but also in a number of documents of foreign diplomatic representatives
    of that time. Moreover, over 100 pictures exist depicting this crime',
    H. Demoyan said.

    According to the historian, the following ideology existed at that
    time in Turkey: '20 years later after massacre, the Armenians will be
    ready for a new massacre>, moreover, a national intolerance and race
    discrimination reigned with respect to the Armenians. Moreover, in
    his report, H. Demoyan also considered the psychological and economic
    aspects of the Armenian massacre in Adana.
