September 19, 2010 | 14:17
Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute and «Menk» youth movement,
initiated a liturgy followed by a protest rally at the Armenian
Genocide Memorial in Yerevan. Protestors condemned The Turkish
Government for publicity stunts over the Surb Khach Church on the
island of Akhtamar. (Photos).
A Crowded procession began to climb to the memorial complex at the
foot of Tsitsernakaberd, - where Armenian Genocide Memorial is
located--carrying banners, «Do not give us our church for rent» and
«Turkey comply with your international obligations» and shouting the
word «shame». Representatives of public organizations, government
agencies, ordinary Armenian citizens and representatives of ethnic
minorities attended the protest rally.
In his speech Hkop Hakopyan the head of the youth movement «Menk»
noted that modern Turkey's behavior to continue to falsify history
once again proves that it can not change. This is a publicity stunt
for the international community. With this move, Turkey wants to show
everyone that they are democratic, but the Turkish government is
unable to erase the word «shame» from its bloody forehead.
In memory of victims of the Armenian Genocide was served a liturgy,
which began at the same time with the liturgy held in the Surb Khach
Church on Akhtamar Islands in Turkey.
Noteworthy that, Sept 19, liturgy in the Surb Khach Church is the
first in 100 years and only the Armenian Patriarchate of
Constantinople is participating in the liturgy in Surb Khach. Holy See
of Echmiadzin, Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem and Holy See of
Cilicia refused to take part in the liturgy in Surb Khach (Holy Cross)
due to the Turkish authorities' decision to install the cross on the
church after the liturgy.
