Bulgarian Orthodox Church Synod described 1915 events as Genocide
07.12.2007 13:30 GMT+04:00

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Holy Synod of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church sent
condolences to Catholicos of All Armenians, his Holiness Garegin II
over the Armenian Genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Empire in 1915.

It’s remarkable that term Genocide is used in the message.

`The Ottoman Empire subjected Bulgarian people and Church to severe
persecution. This proves that two Christian nations had a similar
destiny. Over 70 thousand of Armenians, heirs of the Genocide victims,
live in Bulgaria nowadays. May the memory of Turkish yataghan’s
victims live forever,’ the message says, the RA MFA press office
reported.

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
