YEREVAN (YERKIR) – Turkey uses new methods to destroy Armenian
cultural monuments, Candidate of Historical Sciences Hayk Demoyan told
journalists.”If earlier monuments were openly destroyed in Turkey,
the situation has changed drastically lately,” the historian notes.

In his words, “restoration works” are held in Ani and in Akhtamar
Island at the moment. Demoyan said that under the pretence of
“restoration” Turkish authorities complete the genocide of Armenian
monuments, that they launched already in 1915 – simultaneous to the
Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey.

“Not only 1.5 million Armenians were destroyed by Turks at the time,
but also thousands of Armenian cultural monuments,” the historian said,
reports Novosti-Armenia.

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
