16:20 18/03/2015 >> SOCIETY
The Romanian people know very well what happened to the Armenian nation
at the beginning of the 20th century, and no one doubts that it was
genocide, Karen Shebeshi, Romanian journalist of Armenian descent,
commentator of Romanian National Television, told Panorama.am on the
sidelines of “At the Foot of Mount Ararat” media forum in Yerevan.
“Regrettably, Romania has not officially recognized the Armenian
Genocide, but no one whom I have spoken to has any doubt about what
happened to the Armenian nation. We all know that it was genocide,”
he said.
Referring to Ankara’s decision to mark the 100th anniversary of the
Battle of Gallipoli on April 24, 2015, when the Armenian Genocide
centenary will be commemorated, Mr Shebeshi said, “This is a clownery.
Every conscious person understands that this day has nothing to do
with the Battle of Gallipoli.”
