YEREVAN. – The presentation of the Russian-language edition of the book, entitled Black Book: Prominent Foreigners on Turkish Crimes and Armenian Genocide, was held at Armenian State Pedagogical University (ASPU), the latter informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.    

“In this book, the greatest foreign notables speak frankly and with serious assessments about the greatest tragedy of our nation.

They continue to bear the ideology of the Ottoman Empire and reject the values of the modern world,” Deputy FM Shavarsh Kocharyan stated, in his turn, and assured that they will do everything possible to have this book printed in other languages, too.
