PanARMENIAN.Net – Armenian history textbooks must dwell on the
activities of Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia
(ASALA), head of “In Ancestral Footsteps” NGO said.
As Arman Mkhitaryan told a press conference, Armenian authorities
find it inappropriate to present ASALA activities in the textbooks,
due to its being considered a terrorist organization by several
international organizations.
“ASALA has always punished specific persons, never having claimed
innocent victims,” he said, adding that fallen ASALA members are buried
in Yerablur military cemetery, as a testament to their being warriors.
Tribute will be paid to ASALA martyrs on August 7.
