    J.J. VAN AARTSEN DENIES THE AZERBAIJANI DISINFORMATION

    Wednesday,November 03, 2010

    In response to recent reports in the Azerbaijani media regarding
    the decision of The Hague to refrain from setting up a monument
    commemorating the Armenian Genocide J.J. Van Aartsen appeared with
    a denial letter.

    "To my great regret I read in a conscious newspaper
    (http://www.today.az/news/politics/74347.html) article that I have
    personally rejected the request for the monument as a result of
    20,000 signatures gathered by the NATCV against the placement of
    the monument. I deeply regret this incorrect reporting, given the
    fact that both parties have been informed several times by letter
    and phone on the conscious question and that the request by NATCV
    for delivery of the collected signatures are not accepted.

    The letter also reads that the above decision of the Municipal
    Executive of The Hague was already taken before the summer and is
    entirely separate from the collected signatures by NATCV and in 2001
    in Assen a monument was erected to support remembrance of the families
    of the victims of the Armenian genocide.

    However the Armenian-Netherlandish organization, the
    Armenian-Netherlandish Federation and the Commission of the Armenian
    Case are not pleased with the argumentation of the mayor of not
    setting up a monument and now discuss the future steps.
