Tert.am
24.04.10
Representatives of Nikol Aghbalyan Youth Organization affiliated
with the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutiun, ARF-D)
organized a traditional torch march to Tsitsernakaberd - the memorial
of the Armenian Genocide.
The march started at 8 pm on April 23 from the Matenadaran in downtown
Yerevan where the participants burned down Turkey's national flag, as
well as the photos of Turkish President Abdullah Gul, Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu.
The march moved forward via the France Square and Baghramyan Avenue
with the participants holding in their hands posters condemning
the Armenian Genocide and calling on Turkey and the international
community to recognize it.
Reaching the hilltop memorial complex of Tsitsernakaberd the
participants used lighting candles to picture a 95-shaped figure
which marks the 95th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
This torch march has become a tradition in Armenia. The torches
symbolize Armenian's inexorability and resoluteness over the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
