    Armenia started exhibitions in a number of countries earlier this
    month to commemorate the 100th anniversary of a genocide allegedly
    committed by the Ottoman Empire, organizers say.

    The exhibitions were held in capital cities of countries including
    Georgia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Norway,
    according to the Armenian Genocide Museum Institute and Diaspora
    Unions.

    Armenia says about 1.5 million Armenians were killed by forces of
    the Ottoman Empire in 1915-1923, and that the survivors were expelled
    and found refuge in different parts of the world.

    More than 20 countries have officially recognized the fact of the
    mass killing.

    Armenians across the world will mark the 100th anniversary of the
    genocide on April 24, 2015.
