10:41, 16 March, 2015
YEREVAN, MARCH 16, ARMENPRESS. It becomes more and more difficult
for Turkey to continue its denialist policy advancing the 100th
anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Dersim-Armenian Miran Prkich
stated this in a conversation with â~@~\Armenpressâ~@~].
Among other things, Miran Prkich stated that the Union of Dersim
Armenians and Alawites will commemorate the Armenian Genocide
victimsâ~@~Y memory on April 24 this year in the KayıÅ~_oÄ~_lu
Canyon. In addition, Miran Prkich underscored that the canyon has
not been chosen as the site for the commemoration accidentally. The
Armenians were thrown into that very canyon and murdered in 1915.
The fact of the Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman government has
been documented, recognized, and affirmed in the form of media
and eyewitness reports, laws, resolutions, and statements by many
states and international organizations. The complete catalogue
of all documents categorizing the 1915 wholesale massacre of the
Armenian population in Ottoman Empire as a premeditated and thoroughly
executed act of genocide, is extensive. Uruguay was the first country
to officially recognize the Armenian Genocide in 1965. The massacres
of the Armenian people were officially condemned and recognized as
genocide in accordance with the international law by France, Germany,
Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, Russia, Poland,
Lithuania, Greece, Slovakia, Cyprus, Lebanon, Uruguay, Argentina,
Venezuela, Chile, Canada, Vatican and Australia.
