RA NA PRESIDENT BAGHDASARYAN’S MESSAGE ON GENOCIDE VICTIMS’ REMEMBRANCE DAY
National Assembly of RA, Armenia
April 25 2006
Dear Compatriots.
On April 24, the Armenian Genocide Victims’ Remembrance Day, the whole
Armenian nation and progressive humankind bow down their heads before
the memory of 1,5 million innocent victims.
The Armenian Genocide is a crime committed not only against
the Armenian people, but also against the whole mankind, and the
recognition and the condemnation are important not only for Armenia,
but also for countries all over the world. Only through condemnation
of these types of crimes it will be possible to avoid its repetition.
The number of countries, that recognized and condemned the Armenian
Genocide, is increasing every year, which indicates the understanding
of humankind’s responsibility before generations. Only the recognition
and condemnation by the world community, as well as by the Turkish
Government might exclude from such crimes in future.
Different countries’ parliaments have adopted various laws and
resolutions, and we are thankful to all those countries that assist
us in this issue.
Once more we bow down our heads before the memory of the Armenian
Genocide victims and address our support to our compatriots.
