The agenda of the Armenian Genocide centennial commemoration events is
going to be very impressive, according to Vigen Sargsyan, the chief of
the Presidential Staff.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting of the commission tasked with
coordinating the 2015 events, Sargsyan said they intend to introduce
the topic in a broader context to highlight its nature as a crime.
"Since the very first day of independence, Armenia has been the
champion of it, and it has invested efforts on the international arena
- especially in the United Nations - towards the modernization of
tools and mechanisms aimed at condemning the crime of genocide," he
said.
The official further elaborated on the planned events. "We will see
many expositions on the biggest and best known arenas and in the best
exhibition halls. These will be displays dedicated to not only memory
but also rebirth. Armenia will actively take part in well-known
international festivals and events," he noted.
