Virtually all Armenian villages defended selves during genocide - expert
April 05, 2014 | 12:52
We, Armenians, have a problem securing the genocide topic's permanent
and significant place in world media.
Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute Assistant Director Suren Manukyan
stated the aforesaid Friday, at a three-day conference in the City of
Tsaghkadzor.
Manukyan underscored that the Armenian Genocide issue should not be
discussed on every April 24 alone. In his words, constantly speaking
about and conferring on the genocide reduces the chance of recurrence
of this tragedy, and we fight against the denial of the genocide.
"The Armenian Genocide topic also contains a huge educational filling.
It is very important to include the heroic chapters alongside the
tragic events. Very few nations could have survived, fought, and
created a state after this terrible tragedy.
"In the days of the genocide, there was self-defense in almost all
Armenian villages; we need to voice this," he specifically noted.
The speaker stressed that even though this topic is very emotional, it
should be transferred to the conscious domain, too.
Suren Manukyan also urged to refrain from the improper exploitation of
the word "genocide."
