PanARMENIAN.Net – Today Turkey is turning a “worse face” to the world
because it does not recognize the Armenian Genocide, head of World
Yezidi National Union said in Yerevan.

Visiting the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial to the Genocide victims on April
24, Yezidi leader Aziz Tamoyan told journalists that the world will
“force” Turkey to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide, and it will
recognize it officially.

In this regard, Tamoyan particularly emphasized that over 750 000
Yezidis inhabited Western Armenia before 1915, while now they account
for only 5000 due to migration to Eastern Armenia.

“Armenians accepted them gladly, and we are grateful for that,”
Yezidi Union leader stated adding that Turks should realize that
“Armenian Genocide was not committed by a single person”.
