The three long-established Armenian political parties (Social Democrat
Henchag Party, ARF Dashnaktsutyun, and Ramkavar Liberal Party) harshly
condemned the agreement on declaring Beirut and Istanbul sister cities.
And the three parties released a joint statement, on Wednesday,
which specifically reads:
"The three Armenian parties severely condemn Beirut City Council's this
initiative, according to which Istanbul-capital of the Ottoman Empire,
which carried out disasters in the region, and especially in Lebanon,
and which caused them devastations, continuously for 400 years-shall
become the sister [city] of Beirut, which has a Martyrs' Square.
What happened to the respect toward man, as an absolute value, to
the respect toward his memory?"
