TURKS WANT TO STOP ARMENIAN GENOCIDE MONUMENT IN BRATISLAVA

14:37, March 20, 2013

The Forum of Armenian Associations in Europe reports that the Turkish
Ministry of Foreign Affairs has launched a campaign to stop the
planned construction of an Armenian Genocide memorial in the heart
of Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia.

Recently, Forum President Ashot Grigoryan met with Bratislav Mayor
Milan Ftacnik regarding the issue.

Mayor Ftacnik told Grigoryan that he was categorically opposed to
a Turkish request to erect a Turkish monument of comparable size in
his city.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
