    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Haberturk channel's TV program guest, Turkish
    actress Pelin Batu characterized the 1915 events as Genocide.

    Later in the program, the actress acknowledged to being threatened
    because of her earlier statements on the Armenian Genocide. "I do
    not advocate either Armenians or Turks. I only call on people to
    tell the truth about past events," Pelin Batu said, criticizing the
    intolerance of Turkish people and referring to recent statement by
    Turkish Prime Minister on the eviction of 100 000 Armenians from the
    country, habervitrini.com reported.

    The Armenian Genocide (1915-23) was the deliberate and systematic
    destruction of the Armenian population of the Ottoman Empire during
    and just after World War I. It was characterized by massacres, and
    deportations involving forced marches under conditions designed to
    lead to the death of the deportees, with the total number of deaths
    reaching 1.5 million.

    The majority of Armenian Diaspora communities were formed by the
    Genocide survivors.
