An exhibition titled "Armenian Genocide: Front Page Coverage in the
World Press" opened at the Museum of Genocide Victims of Lithuania
in March 16.
Deputy Speaker of the Armenian National Assembly Edward Sharmazanov
said in his opening remarks that "the exhibition is not targeted
against any country, including Turkey." "It's rather held for the sake
of restoration of historical justice, and international recognition
and condemnation of genocides," he said.
Sharmazanov added that the Armenian Genocide was the first in the
20th century: 1.5 Armenians were massacred just for being Armenians.
According to him, it is the classical example of racism and xenophobia.
The Deputy Speaker noted that "the exhibition presents the European
press reaction, which is an evidence of the Armenian Genocide."
Edward Sharmazanov stated that the civilized world should condemn
the crime against humanity and for the sake of justice must not let
the perpetrators remain unpunished and the genocide successors -
uncompensated.
