A United Nations exhibit on the Rwandan genocide that was dismantled
three weeks ago after Turkey objected to a reference to the Armenian
genocide was opened in revised form by Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

Where the original exhibit had an entry called "What is genocide?"

that cited the deaths "following World War I" of a million Armenians
"in Turkey," the revised entry is called "Defining the Crime" and
refers to "mass killings of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire during
World War I." Some 1.5 million Armenians were killed by Ottoman
Turks, but Turkey says they were victims of war and unrest instead
of genocide. The exhibit observes the 13th anniversary of the 100-day
slaughter in Rwanda of 800,000 Tutsis by Hutus.
