SUMGAIT AND BAKU MASSACRES THE ECHOS OF 100-YEAR-OLD BLOODY TRAGEDY - RUSSIAN ANALYST
April 18, 2013 | 18:15
YEREVAN.- The Armenian Genocide is a terrible crime which will remain
in the memory of all Armenians forever, Russian political analyst
said during the Moscow-Yerevan space bridge.
Vladimir Zakharov, Director of the Institute of Political and
Social Researches of the Black Sea and Caspian Region, said Turkish
authorities are distorting historic facts, cheating their people.
In a present-day Turkey some authors are cynically telling that "the
Armenians left everything and fled their homes." Such books are being
printed in Turkey now, Zakharov said.
He stressed that the genocide of Armenians in Sumgait and Baku is an
echo of the 100-year-old bloody tragedy.
"Today, the people who are trying to present themselves friendly to
the world do not differ much from the Turks. They are only thinking
about cheating," he added.
"The Turks are afraid to admit the sins of their ancestors, in order
to avoid the return of Armenians to their historic homeland and
compensation to the heirs of all the innocent dead. These two years
must put an end to this: the world must condemn what they did to the
Armenians," Zakharov concluded.
