Historian Justine McCarty rejected Armenian genocide claims in his
address during the conference on the so-called "Armenian genocide"
organized by the Turkish Students Union at the University of Florida.
He said there was no genocide against Armenians in 1915. Armenians
died of hunger and diseases. Historian stressed that Armenians began
riots against Turks with the support of the tsar Russia.
Chairman of the Turkish Students Union Altan Ozler said the aim of
the conference is to prove that the Armenian claims are groundless.
