UNO must create conditions that Kessab Armenians return to their
residence."- announced the organizer of the action, Dashnaktsutyun
"Nikol Aghbalyan" students' union department's chairman Gerasim
Vardanyan, to which the participants of the action responded,
"Kessab is our, and we are Kessab's."
Dozens of Kessab Armenians took part in today's action, "We express
our anger to Turkey, who entered into alliance with the aggressor
and tries to destroy Kessab's small homeland,"- said Hovsep Paslikyan.
Action participant Kessab-Armenian student Shogher Melkonyan moved
to Armenia 6 months ago and left her parents in Syria. According to
her words, Turks attacked Armenian district suddenly, "It was in the
morning, they were many, our relatives didn't manage to take anything,
they only rescued themselves."
Other Kessab-Armenians in Armenia informed that their relatives are
now in Latakia, "They are in very bad conditions, the church helps
them and several charitable organizations. The Government takes care
of them. We are also ready to help them."
So Kessab-Armenians are sure that one day they will return to Syria,

memories,"- said Shogher Melkonyan.
