An extended article on the Armenian Genocide was published in April
edition of prominent French "Le Figaro" magazine's "Histoire" journal.
The article entitled "Armenia: Forgotten genocide" by French Armenian
historian Michael Nishanian thoroughly covers the chronology of the
Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire, and 1894-1896 Hamidian
massacres and presents the Turkish nationalistic ideology behind
the genocide.
"Century-long denial" section of the article describes denial policy
pursued by the Turkish authorities which followed the Armenian Genocide
and continues into today. In this section the change in the dates
of Gallipoli battle 100th anniversary is presented as vivid example
of denialism. However, according to the author, attempts to shift
international community's attentionhave not achieved any result -
as opposed to the Turkish authorities' expectations.
Works about the Armenian Genocide published in France during recent
months and the schedule of the main events to be held in April were
also covered on the pages of the journal.
