Absence of Lebanese authorities at Armenian Genocide 95th anniversary-dedicated events can be explained by increased influence of Turkey in Lebanon, according to Shahan Kandaharian, the Editor-in-Chief of Aztag Beirut-based newspaper. “It’s been the first time Lebanese TV stations were forbidden from broadcasting Zartnir Lao music video, possible detriment to Lebanon-Turkey relations cited. Hostile atmosphere triggered victimization of Aztag newspaper. The website, covering April 24 Genocide commemoration events, was hacked; with attackers posting threats in Turkish and the picture of a Turkish flag.” Shahan Kandaharian told PanARMENIAN.Net “Announcement on unified Iran-Turkey-Syria news agency launch was already made.
