STOCKHOLM, APRIL 24, ARMENIANS TODAY - NOYAN TAPAN. A recently
conducted study at the Uppsala University has revealed highly
interesting information in the Swedish Archives, which once again
confirm the researchers' view of the events in the Ottoman Turkey
during the First World War: the Christian minorities, the Armenians in
particular, were subjected to genocide. As the Swedish press writes,
the massacres in Ottoman Turkey during the First World War claimed
the lives of approximately 1.5 million out of a world population of
four million Armenians, while over 250,000 Assyrians and equal number
of Pontic Greeks. In 1923, for the first time in over 2,500 years,
Armenians no longer lived on 85 % of their fatherland.
