/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Paris Mayor Bertrand Delanoe amid 100 thousand of
French paid a homage to the Armenian Genocide victims and reaffirmed
his urge for Turkey’s acknowledgement, independent French journalist
Jean Eckian told PanARMENIAN.Net

For this exceptional occasion, three Genocide survivors, respectively
94, 100 and 103 years old were invited to take part in the event.

Turkish journalist Ali Ertem (currently residing in Germany) was
also resent at the site. Decrying Turkey for its negationism, he
announced start of a campaign calling on French Turks to urge Turkey
to recognize the Armenian Genocide. The same initiative in Germany
gathered more than 15 000 signatures, according to him.

Alexis Govcyian, chairman of the Coordination Council of the Armenian
Organizations of France, for its part, challenged the Turkish
government by inviting it to recognize immediately and "to assume
all consequences of the Genocide".

But, on this painful day for all Armenians throughout the globe,
Turkish hackers once again wanted to point out their virulent hatred by
pirating the imprescriptible.com web site. Curiously, their inscription
refers to the Kurdish PKK.

It says, "Pkk/kadek/hpg is the world’s most bloody and brutal
terrorism group. They killed approximately 35.000 innocent people
without any cruel till now. All the nations and states must know which
are supporting these bloody and brutal terrorism groups, supporting
terrorism will brings suffer and death. We are always be a side of
peace but we have always some words to say these terrorists "which"
wants to separate us and kill innocent people."

On April 27, an initiative of Collectif VAN (Armenian Vigilance
against the negationism) will pay homage to the victims of Genocides of
Armenians, Jews, Tutsi and that of Darfur. This demonstration will be
organized in front of the Cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris with a slogan
"The Genocides look at you."
