/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Famous Turkish publisher R. Zarakolu considers that
each person should have a flower in his or her hand on April 24. He
reminds that the 90-th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide is in
2005. “No matter how those events are called, no one can deny that a
big human tragedy occurred that year,” he writes in the Turkish
press. Having fulfilled our human duty, we will remind ourselves of
humanity and simultaneously eliminate hatred from the hearts of
generations of Armenians that are full with that pain. Everyone has
to do his duty to purge oneself from that crime, R. Zarakolu calls
upon his compatriots. “One should find a place to lay a flower and
say: your pain is now ours, too,” R. Zarakolu writes.
