The "No to Genocide" exhibition dedicated to the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day on April 24 has been canceled a day before its opening in Saint Petersburg, Russia, the Regional Youth Association of Armenia announced.

"For several days, we worked tirelessly to solve the problem, but it was not possible to solve it," the aforesaid organization also said in its respective statement.

It added that they had tried to resolve this matter at the level of the Consulate General of Armenia as well.

The abovementioned exhibition was to open at the "Russia: My History" historical park, and now another venue to hold this event is being sought.

“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
