Farmington Hills, Michigan, has proclaimed April 24th as Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day. The deocument has been signed by Mayor Vicki Barnett, reports the Armenian National Committee of Michigan (ANCI-MI).

The Committee thanked the City Council for bringing awareness to the “ongoing Genocide of the Armenians and joining the Armenian community in commemorating the 107th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide of 1915 by issuing this important proclamation recognizing April 24th, 2022 as Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day in the City of Farmington Hills.”

“The cycle of the genocide will continue unless we bring the perpetrators to justice,” ANCA-MI added.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
