/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Minister for Justice and Minister Assisting
the Premier on Citizenship, Mr. John Hatzistergos today condemned the
removal of a plaque in Meadowbank – Sydney, commemorating the 90-th
anniversary of the Armenian genocide. The plaque, which was installed
on April 24, 2005, the 90-th anniversary of the Armenian genocide
– has been forcibly removed from Memorial Park, Meadowbank. It
is unknown who has removed the plaque. The plaque was installed
following a motion from Ryde City Council officially recognizing
and condemning the Armenian Genocide of 1915, the first genocide of
the twentieth century. This is a disgraceful and cowardly act, Mr.
Hatzistergos said.
