An article about Armenian Genocide by Simon Bentsen published by Danish Berlinske daily has been much discussed by Danish news websites, radio and television.

During the opening of exhibition titled “Armenian Genocide and Scandinavian Response”, Turkish Embassy in Denmark offered to hold an exhibition titled “so-called Armenian Genocide.”

The author quotes Danish People’s Party Spokesman Søren Espersen who said the suggestion sounded so as if neo-Nazi organized an exhibition on Holocaust.

In his turn Danish historian and expert on genocides, Matthias Bjørnlund, said the Armenian Genocide is a fact and any other assertions are not scientific.

Armenia’s Ambassador to Denmark also expressed hope that the Royal Library in Copenhagen would not hold an exhibition under this title. According to the article, Denmark’s opposition Venstre party demanded that culture ministry must ban holding such event.
