Armenia's Ambassador to Switzerland, world famous chanson singer
Charles Aznavour addressed the Armenian Genocide Centennial issue in
an article in Le Monde.
It is noteworthy that Charles Aznavour addressed not the 100-year-old
events, but the current policy of Turkey calling it, inherently,
the continuation of the Ottoman Turkey's genocidal policy. Aznavour
points at Ankara's refusal to ratify the Armenian-Turkish protocols
to normalize the relations with Armenia. The ambassador thinks Turkey
was behind the Islamic State militants' attack on the predominantly
Armenian-populated Kessab in Syria and the destruction of the Armenian
Genocide Martyrs' Memorial Church Deir ez-Zor , where hundreds of
thousands of Armenians were massacred during the Genocide.
According to Aznavour, extermination of the Yazidi and other Christian
minorities in the Middle East by the Islamic radicals is a result of
the unrecognized Genocide of Armenians.
The ambassador thinks little has changed since 1915 in the global
policy. Super powers continue to put their geopolitical interests
above moral and ethics, he said, blaming them for the situation in
the world. Aznavour said the Turkish authorities have concealed the
truth about the dark page of their history from their own people for
100 years. He is sure the Turkish people will sooner and later learn
the truth and accept their history.
