ARMENIANS MARK ‘GENOCIDE’ AT TURKISH EMBASSY IN TBILISI
Civil Georgia, Georgia
April 24, 2006
Dozens of representatives of the Armenian community in Georgia
gathered on April 24 outside the Turkish Embassy in Tbilisi to demand
recognition of slaughter estimated 1,5 million Armenians in 1915-1923
as genocide.
Armenians throughout the world are marking April 24 as a launch of
Armenian genocide by Ottoman Turkish government. But Turkey insists
that the number of those killed is inflated and the Armenians were
victims of World War I and not of genocide.
