May 8, 2007 Tuesday
Armenian Justice Minister David Arutyunyan said answering an Itar-Tass
question on Tuesday that the dismantlement of the Soldier Liberator
monument in Tallinn is an attempt to rewrite history that is insulting
for every person living in his country.
"The attempt to rewrite history is a very dangerous phenomenon,"
he noted. "It is very insulting for every person living in Armenia
irrespective of age."
"The Armenian people together with other peoples fought against the
regime that committed crimes against humanity," stressed Arutyunyan.
"This historical memory is alive in us," he added.
"I think these actions should be denounced and I don't believe that
such things can be repeated anywhere," believes the minister. "They
in Estonia will realise that their actions were wrong when the time
comes," the official is certain.
"Because soldiers of the Great Patriotic War that defended the Soviet
Union also defended their republics - Armenia, Belarus, Ukraine and
certainly Estonia," the Armenian justice minister emphasised.
