The Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute (AGMI) will continue to present
the true history not only through the permanent exhibition but also in
exhibition halls of large world capitals, AGMI Director Hayk Demoyan
told a news conference on Tuesday. Demoyan stressed the importance
of the exhibitions held in the hall of the Catholic Church of Beirut
and in Copenhagen Royal Library last year.
"These exhibitions triggered a response from the Turkish embassy,
which led to a harsh response by the Danish public. About 250 critical
articles were published in Denmark. The key thesis was that Turkey
has no right to voice an opinion denying the Armenian Genocide in
Denmark," Demoyan said.
Demoyan said that AGMI is planning to sign a number of agreements
including with the Canadian Museum of Human Rights.
"We pretend to become a big research center that will carry out
researches not only on the Armenian Genocide but also on genocide
studies in general," he said.
The AGMI Director added that famous genocide scholar, editor-in-chief
of the Encyclopedia of Genocide Israel W. Charny has donated his
personal library to the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute.
