On the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun said, “We remember with deep sorrow the victims of this humanitarian tragedy and reflect on the meanings of resilience and adherence to identity.”
He noted that Lebanon served as a safe haven for Armenians, who found in it a second homeland, contributing to its development and becoming an integral part of its national fabric and rich diversity.
He added that commemorating this anniversary is an opportunity to reaffirm the importance of preserving collective memory, promoting the values of justice and human dignity, and working toward a future based on peace and mutual respect among peoples.
“We salute the Armenian people and reaffirm Lebanon’s commitment to its message as a land of freedom and diversity, and its belief that preserving memory is a fundamental pillar in preventing the recurrence of tragedies,” he said.
