On April 21, 2007 a katchkar monument will be placed in Bergen, Norway
dedicated to Fridtjof Nansen and the victims of the 1915Armenian
Genocide perpetrated by Turks, independent correspondent Jean Eckian
informs from France.
In its book "Armenia and the Near East" (1923), Nansen once wrote
"The massacres that started in 1915 have nothing to compare with
the history of mankind. The massacres by Abdul Hamid are minor in
comparison to what today's Turks have done."
The initiative comes from The Armenian Society of Kaunas District in
Lithuania. When Vahan Arzumanian the head of this Society presented the
project in the annual meeting of the Assembly of Armenians of Europe
(AAE), all the participants decided to collaborate with the organizers.
Bergen is the kingdom's second largest city, with over 225 000
inhabitants and situated on the west coast of Norway.
