On April 16, a delegation led by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia, Tanja Fajon, visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial.

The guests were welcomed by Edita Gzoyan, Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute (AGMI), who accompanied them to the memorial and presented the history of its creation.

Ms. Tanja Fajon laid a wreath at the memorial commemorating the victims of the Armenian Genocide. The delegation then laid flowers at the Eternal Flame and observed a moment of silence in memory of the innocent victims.

The delegation also toured the Armenian Genocide Museum, where they became acquainted with both the permanent and temporary exhibitions. At the end of the visit, Deputy Prime Minister Tanja Fajon left a message in the museum’s Honorary Guest Book.

Director Edita Gzoyan also spoke about the three khachkars (cross-stones) placed within the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial Complex in memory of the Armenians massacred during the Azerbaijani government-orchestrated pogroms in Sumgait, Kirovabad (Gandzak), and Baku at the end of the 20th century.

In appreciation of the visit, Edita Gzoyan presented the honorary guest with publications on the Armenian Genocide.
