The Georgian press was mostly objective in covering the Armenian
Genocide of 1914-18, say a group of Georgian young people, who studied
the Georgian archives for about a year and published the book titled
“The Armenian Genocide in Georgian periodicals of 1914-18.”
Georgian archives are rich in materials on the Armenian Genocide.
However, the periodicals kept in Georgian archives have not yet
been investigated.
The book covers the period from the beginning of 1914 to mid-1918. It
presents in the chronological order the key data from analytical and
other articles in the Georgian press.
Member of Georgia’s “Armenian Student Union” organization Edward
Sahakyan says: “In general the Georgian press presented information
about the Armenian Genocide rather objectively. However, some articles
were obviously financed by the Turkish side.”
