DISREGARD OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE LED TO NEW TRAGEDY DURING WORLD WAR II:
HEAD OF JEWISH COMMUNITY IN ARMENIA
Yerevan, January 27. ArmInfo. The disregard of the Armenian Genocide
of 1915 led to a new tragedy during the World War II, Rimma
Varzhapetyan, the head of the Jewish community in Armenia, said at a
press-conference, Saturday, devoted to the International Day of
Commemoration of Holocaust victims.
She noted that the attempts of Ottoman Turkey and Hitlerite Germany to
exterminate two nations should become a lesson for the next
generations. Nobody should stand the reoccurrence of such tragedy in
the future, R.Varzhapetyan emphasized. To remind, on January 27,
1945, Major Anatoly Shapiro, the commander of the storm-troops of the
106th infantry corps, was one of the first people to enter the Nazi
Germany's largest death camp Oswiecim, where peaceful civil population
and prisoners of war were sent. Over a million people were
exterminated in the gas chambers of Oswiecim. In total, 6 million Jews
became victims of Holocaust during the World War II.
