Prevention at stake: 109 years since the Armenian Genocide
The AGMI Director delivered a speech in the European Parliament


19.04.2024


Edita Gzoyan, Director of the AGMI participated online in an event which took place in the European Parliament titled “Commemorating the Armenian Genocide. The Road to Modern Day Displacement”, on April 18.

In her speech titled “Prevention at Stake: 109 Years Since the Armenian Genocide” Edita Gzoyan presented the historical basis of the genocide with great thoroughness. She also detailed the court proceedings that took place in those years. According to Gzoyan, what has happened in Nakhijevan and Nagorno-Karabakh was a continuation of the 1915 genocide. According to the speaker, the rhetoric of the leaders of Turkey and Azerbaijan, the discourse of the society of those countries make to think about a genocide. Speaking about the genocide itself, the museum’s director emphasised that it is not only about the loss of human lives. “By targeting desecrating and destroying cultural monuments, people are being deprived of their identity. The destruction of Armenian churches is aimed at denying the existence of indigenous Armenians in their homeland. Today, the same is being done in Artsakh”, stressed Edita Gzoyan, noting with pain that today Tsitsernakaberd is not only a memorial complex of the past, but also of the present.
