A soccer match between Ararat-TTU and Art International teams on May 2
will complete the series of events in Estonia dated to the 95th
anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, miasin.ru reported.

Ararat-TTU will play with black ribbons on their arms, in memory of
1.5 million victims.

`It’s important that famous sportsmen, coaches and actors playing for
the team are not indifferent about this problem,’ said Avetis
Harutyunyan, Ararat-TTU leader.

`The Armenian Genocide is often used as a foreign policy tool. Not
condemned, it entailed a chain of atrocities in various countries
across the globe,’ added Albert Stepanyan, the leader of Art
International. `This game is a tribute to the memory of those killed.
It’s our slogan – Never Again.’
