have protested against the Danish Royal Library Board that gave
the right to Turkey to present Armenian Genocide denial policy in
an exhibition entitled “so called Armenian Genocide”. Director of
Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute, Academy of Sciences Hayk Demoyan
stated in the briefing with Armenpress, “The complaint letter of the
intellectuals was published in Danish press on December 17. In early
November by the support of our Embassy we opened a temporary exhibition
in Royal Library of Denmark, which arose negative reaction by Turkish
Embassy. They cared no efforts to hinder the launch of the exhibition;
however it welcomed the visitors on November 6”.
“Danish museum, however, adopted an alternative decision enabling
chance to Turkish side to organize its own exhibition” Demoyan
underscored. In the words of the interlocutor this arose fierce
attitude among Danish society. By the data of our Embassy there
were more than a hundred copies of publications, most of which in a
critical nature, condemning Turkish side over holding denial policy
refer to Armenian Genocide. Danish press published several Turkish
scholars complaint letter addressed to the library administration,
famous scholar Taner Akcham and other known scientists point of views
inclusive” Demoyan noted.
