    EVENTS DEDICATED TO 98TH ANNIVERSARY OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ARE HELD IN KAZAKHSTAN

    16:30, 24 April, 2013

    YEREVAN, APRIL 24, ARMENPRESS: On April 22-24 different events
    dedicated to the 98th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide were held
    in all the 14 Armenian communities of Kazakhstan. As Armenpress was
    reported by the Department for Press, Information and Public Relations
    of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia, wreaths
    were laid at the cross stone in the area of the Armenian Luys Center,
    located in Almaty, and a burial service was organized in the Saint
    Karapet Church.

    Commemoration events were held also in Astana, Qostanay, Oskemen and
    other cities of Kazakhstan.

    Events dedicated to the Remembrance Day of the Armenian Genocide
    were organized also in Bishkek, attended by the Armenian community
    of Kyrgyzstan.

    On April 24 it is the 98th anniversary of the remembrance of the
    innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide. On the international
    political level it will be clearer, what developments to expect
    from the capitals of the world before the 100th anniversary in the
    recognition and condemnation issues of the Armenian Genocide, which
    occurred in 1915 and to what results the Armenia's policy might bring.

    The entire series of the documents, proving the fact of the mass
    massacres of the Armenian people in 1915-1923 in the Ottoman Turkey
    as a premeditated and thoroughly executed act of genocide, is enormous.

    The Armenian Genocide was recognized by different organizations, such
    as the European Council, the European Parliament, some commissions
    of the UN Organization, the World Church Union, etc.

    The Armenian Genocide was recognized by many states. The first
    country to officially recognize the Armenian Tragedy was Uruguay in
    1965. The massacres of the Armenian people were officially condemned
    and recognized as a genocide, in accordance with the international
    law, by France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland,
    Sweden, Russia, Poland, Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia, Cyprus, Lebanon,
    Uruguay, Argentina (2 laws and 5 draft bills), Venezuela, Chile,
    Canada, Vatican, and Australia.
