    SURB KHACH 'GENOCIDE SURVIVAL'

    "The opening ceremony of Surb Khach in Akhtamar Island on Lake Van is a
    usual preaching act by Turkey which aims at proving their long-lasting
    animosity change towards Armenians,' states Vahe Sargsyan, juror of
    ARF 'Nikol Aghbalyan' student union.' They should cognize the fact
    that most of Armenian relics are either destroyed or at the edge of
    annihilation in Turkey. '

    While the Turkish government was getting ready for the opening ceremony
    of the restored church, an exhibition was opened under the title
    "Culture Genocide". More than 150 Armenian historical monuments are
    exhibited there.

    Eliza Durgaryan witnessed a moon on the dome of St. Arakelots church
    in Kars while in Western Armenia.

    'When asked what church it was they answered it was of Greek
    origin. Kars Historic Museum looked like our Museum of History: all
    the exhibits were of Armenian origin,' Mrs. Durgaryan recollects. In
    fact, she believes they are not even going to put a cross on the dome
    of St Khachik

    The exhibition will travel to Vanadzor, Gyumri and Ijevan.
