A month before the 94th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire The New York Times published an interesting article by Sabrina Tavernise. According to a long-hidden document that belonged to the Interior Minister of the Ottoman Empire, 972.000 Ottoman Armenians disappeared from official population records from 1915 through 1916. The numbers are published by Murat Bardakci, the Turkish author and columnist, in a book that is a collection of documents and records that once belonged to Mehmed Talat, known as Talat Pasha, the primary architect of the Armenian deportations.
