Armenian Genocide: justice is demand of international law and security of nations
"April 24 is the day of mourning for Armenians throughout the globe. 93 years ago Young Turks perpetrated the Armenian Genocide, the fact modern Turkey denies despite international opinion. The problem now is not to convince the international community of the fact of Genocide but to achieve its official recognition. None of U.S. Congressmen denies the fact of the Armenian Genocide," says "Day of Sorrow" article published in Vostochno-Sibirskaya Pravda newspaper.

The author of the article reminds that on October 10, 2007 the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted the Armenian Genocide Resolution, H.Res.106.

"The Russian State Duma recognized the Genocide in 1994… As a UN member, the Republic of Armenia is obliged to speak out for elimination of consequences of the Genocide perpetrated against its people. The crime of Genocide doesn't have time limitation. Justice is a demand of international law and security of nations. The Armenian community of Irkutsk mourns over the innocent murder victims," says the article signed by the chairman of the regional department of the Union of Armenians of Russia.
