    ARKA News Agency, Armenia
    April 24 2006

    Yerevan, April 24. /ARKA/. Russia supports the Armenian people in
    the issue of the Armenian Genocide, RF Ambassador to Armenia Nikolay
    Pavlov told reporters.

    According to him, Russia's approach to the problem is clear: the
    country recognized and condemned the Armenian Genocide.

    "Arrangements and processions in memory of the victims of 1915 have
    been organized in different Russian cities, conferences were held
    a few days ago and books on the Armenian Genocide were published,"
    Pavlov said.

    The Armenian Genocide, the first genocide of the 20th century, was
    organized and put into practice by the Government of Young Turks in
    Western Armenia, then part of the Ottoman Empire. Over 1.5mln Armenians
    were slaughtered. The Armenian Genocide has been recognized by many
    countries.
