Armenians Marked `Genocide’ at Turkish Embassy in Tbilisi
Dozens of ethnic Armenians living in Georgia gathered on April 24
at the Turkish Embassy in Tbilisi to mark 90th anniversary of the
1915 events, what Yerevan views as genocide of about 1.5 million
Armenians in Ottoman Turkey.
Participants of the rally demanded from the Turkish authorities to
recognize 1915 slaughter as genocide of Armenians. But Turkey insists
that the number of those killed is inflated and Armenians were
victims of World War I and not of genocide.
