Hunger strikers in Glendale urge RA President to refrain from RA-Turkish Protocols' conclusion
"Hunger for Justice" Armenian Community Rally against RA-Turkish rapprochement Protocols' conclusion is taking place at Armenian Consulate of LA, Glendale.
On Friday, October 9, hunger strike participants presented a letter, addressed to President Serzh Sargsyan, to Armenian Consulate of LA, Asbarez.com reported.
Below is the text of the letter:
As the descendents of Genocide survivors, we cannot allow the historical reality of the Armenian Genocide to be put into question through the creation of a so-called historical commission. We find such an initiative to be another tool for Turkey to use in its age-old campaign to distort and deny the veracity of the Armenian Genocide.
As Armenians, we cannot stay silent as your administration goes against the will of the majority of our people worldwide who have demonstrated their opposition to these flawed and one-sided documents. We will not stand idly by as the voice of our nation is silenced and made a mockery of through empty gestures and a facade of "consultation."
