LONDON, JUNE 19, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The English translation
of the uncensored edition of the book "The Treatment of Armenians
in the Ottoman Empire in 1915-1916. Documents Presented to Viscount
Grey of Fallodon by Viscount Bryce" by James Bryce and Arnold Toynbee
will be released next week in London and Ankara, Azg daily reported,
referring to a report of Gomidas Institute (London).
Ara Sarafian is the editor of the 654-page book. Interestingly,
in 2005, considering the book a "propaganda publication", Turkish
parliamentarians filed a petition to British MPs, probably requesting
not to publish an English translation. However, after some discussions
British MPs rejected the petition in 2006, inviting their Turkish
colleagues to consult with them. The members of Turkish parliament
refused to meet with them.
