/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Today, a resident of Yerevan Haykanush Sarsyan,
who came to Tsisernakaberd to commemorate 1915 Genocide victims,
made a gift of her father’s dagger to Armenian Genocide Museum.
The dagger once belonged to comrade-in-arms of Andranik Ozanyan,
Armenia’s National Hero.
Sargsyan family from Western Armenia had been witnesses to tragic
events of 1915.
Says Haykanush Sargsyan to PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, "I’m proud of
my ancestors who bravely fought against Turkish vandals. I’m happy
the museum will become a new home for our family relic."
"I believe that the Armenian Genocide must be acknowledged and
condemned by world countries, specifically Turkey, whether Turkey
wills it or not. Its important that we were prepared for it, as there
are may questions to which we ourselves don’t know the answers,"
Haykanush Sargsyan stressed.
