The City of Buenos Aires will donate a property to the Armenian
community for the construction of an Armenian Genocide Museum,
according to Undersecretary for Human Rights and Cultural Pluralism
Claudio Avruj, Asbare reports, quoting Agencia Prensa Armenia.
In dialogue with Prensa Armenia, Undersecretary Avruj stressed the
importance of the project "that joins the efforts of both Buenos Aires
and Argentina" to recognize the Armenian Genocide and added that it
is an initiative that will benefit both the Armenian community and
people in general.
Carolina Karagueuzian, director of the Armenian National Committee
of Buenos Aires, said that "this will be a collective project that
will show the struggle of the Armenian community in the country to
keep the memory of the Armenian Genocide alive", and also "a space
for reflection on genocidal practices and the importance of respect
for human rights."
Last April 24 a similar project was launched in Uruguay, with the
presentation of the Armenian Genocide Museum Foundation coordinated
by the Ministry of Education and Culture together with Uruguayan
Armenian organizations in the country.
