Seminar named “Armenians between life and death: 100th Anniversary of
Armenian martyrdom” was held in Constanta City Odivius University,
Romania on Friday within the framework of the 100th anniversary of the
Armenian Genocide. The seminar was organized by the local committee
of Romania and the Armenian Embassy in Romania, as well as by
Constanta branches of Romanian Armenians Union and Armenian diocese.

The speakers of the seminar were the Ambassador of Armenia in Romania
Hamlet Gasparian, Primate of the Armenian Diocese of Romania Bishop
Tatev Hakobyan, and the representative of Archbishop Teodosie of
Tomis.

Speaking about the Armenian Genocide and the denial policy of the
Turkish government, as well as the unacceptability of that policy,
Ambassador Gasparian noted the necessity of uniting internationally
with the view of preventing genocides and struggling against their
denial. With this respect he highly commended the significance of the
European Parliament, UN Human Rights Council, as well as the clear and
specific resolutions of EPP.

The speeches were followed by discussions with the participation of
the representatives of Romanian academia and Armenian community.
