Jurgen Gottschlich, a foreign correspondent for German newspaper Die
Tageszeitung in Istanbul, will soon publish the “Genocide complicity:
Germany’s role in the Armenian Genocide” book, News.am reports citing
Nouvelles d’Armenie.
100 years after the atrocities committed against the Armenians
Gottschield accuses Germany of its involvement in the genocide.
According to him, German officers and diplomats were well aware
of Armenians’ massacres and deportations in Ottoman Turkey. The
journalist criticizes Germany for not even referring to its role in
the Armenian slaughter.
Gottschield visited and interviewed the survivors’ descendants,
as well as studied the German and Turkish archives.
As a result, the documentary historical book appeared that
multilaterally examines Germany’s participation in the Armenian
Genocide, as well as the controversy concerning this issue.
