    Manual on Holocaust presented at Armenian Genocide Museum

    14:46, 18.10.2014


    YEREVAN. -- Presentation of "History of the Holocaust in the USSR"
    manual was held at the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute on Saturday.

    This manual will be a contribution to Armenia's education system in
    terms of telling about the Holocaust carried out by Nazi Germany
    during the Second World War, co-chairman of the center of the
    Holocaust, Russian professor Ilya Altman said.

    "The book which we published in 2002 and which was the first manual on
    Holocaust recommended by the Ministry of Education in the post-Soviet
    area, will be published in the native language here," he said.

    Armenia has accumulated vast experience in teaching the Armenian
    Genocide. The publication of this book is the first step to exchange
    the methods, techniques, historical information that links the tragedy
    of the two nations.

    He stressed that Auschwitz was liberated by representatives of
    different nationalities, and there were definitely Armenians among
    them.

    "I have been already told stories about the rescue of Jews by
    Armenians. Therefore, today's presentation is a very important event
    for us," Altman added.

    One of the problems, he added, is to consolidate teachers and
    researchers from Russia and Armenia, also Jewish and Armenian
    communities in other countries to not only tell the world about these
    tragedies, but so that this kind of books could become red line
    against any hatred, genocide against any other nation.
