Human rights protection attaches to recognition of Genocide
The 1915 Genocide of Armenians is a crime, committed against the
international community; its recognition attaches to the protection of
human rights, according to Human Rights Defender Armen Harutyunian,
who spoke to journalists at the Tsitsenakaberd Complex in Yerevan,
where the Memorial to the 1915 Genocide Victims is installed.
`The protection of human rights is directly attached to the
recognition of the Genocide of Armenians,' he said.
`If the protection of human rights in Armenia is kept at a high level
and if this is marked down by the international community, then these
all will influence the process of the international recognition of the
1915 Genocide,' he added.
