RA Parliament Speaker addresses message

16:12 / 04/24/2010Speaker of the RA Parliament Hovik Abrahamyan
addressed a message on the 95th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide
which particularly reads: `The greater part of a creative people was
destroyed, deported and bereft of its Homeland, their only guilt being
Armenians. That was a crime not only against the Armenian people, but
also against all humanity.’

The Armenian Genocide is not to be discussed `though some would like
to play this card.’ No document can call the fact of the Armenian
Genocide in the Ottoman Empire into question. No process must be
viewed as refusal to get the Genocide recognized. Steps forward must
not be made at the expense of historical facts, says the message.

`No one can nor has any right to forget the non-healing wound, the
Genocide, as restoring historical justice is interwoven with the
feelings of our souls. At the same time, it must give us strength to
find a future that would not impede Armenia’s progress, enhance our
role in international and regional processes,’ says the message.
