YEREVAN, APRIL 24, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. “For the Armenian
people, April 24 is not only a day of commemoration but also a day
of struggle as paying the tribute of our respect to the memory of
the innocent victims, we express our protest against the Turkish
government,” Hrant Margarian, representative of ARF Dashnaktsutiun
Bureau, declared on April 24, at the Tsitsernakaberd memorial complex
of the Armenian Genocide victims. “The stronger Armenia becomes and
the more organized it is the more we will approach the recognition
of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey,” Hrant Margarian said meanwhile
emphasizing that “our goal should not be only the recognition of the
Armenian Genocide by Turkey, but we should protect our rights”. “The
Genocide violated the Armenian people’s right of life, existence,
development and by recognizing the Genocide we will restore these
rights,” ARF Dashnaktsutiun Bureau representative declared. In response
to the question, whether Turkey will be admitted into the European
Union without recognizing the Armenian Genocide, H.Margarian said:
“If Turkey has decided to join the European Union, it should be able to
confess its faults and by doing so to achieve the right to join EU. In
order to make part of EU, Turkey first of all should be europeanized”.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
