the Armenian Genocide held a ceremony for signing the book titled
"Eyewitnesses on Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire" by Armenia's
Ambassador to Syria Arshak Poladian at al-Assad Library with the
presence of politicians, clergymen, intellectuals and journalists.
Dr. Poladian said in his book, issued by al-Sharq Publishing House
in Damascus that the Ottomans perpetrated genocide that expanded
geographically throughout the Armenian map- from Cilicia to Mount
Ararat through Trabzon and the eastern states- highlighting the
crimes of banishment, killing, burning of houses, pillage, rape and
humiliation against the Armenians, citing heart-wrenching stories of
pain, grief and sadness.
The book includes testimonies of three eyewitnesses (the Syrian
lawyer Fayez al-Ghussein, Naem Bek al-Turki and Father Isaac Armala
al-Syriani).
The 250-paper book contains precise documents featuring the horrible
atrocities which the Ottomans committed against a million and a half
Armenians in late 19th century and early 20th century.
