World-renowned French-Armenian singer, songwriter, actor and public activist Charles Aznavour, who is also the Ambassador of Armenia to Switzerland, was on hand to a discussion in the Swiss capital city of Bern.

The event was entitled “100 Years after the Great Calamity: Consequences of the Armenian Genocide Denial,” and the discussion was held with members of the Swiss Federal Assembly.

French Armenian historian Raymond Kévorkian delivered a presentation on the realities of the Armenian Genocide, and Turkey’s respective policy of denial and its consequences.

In addition, the Swiss parliamentarians posed several questions of interest.

At the end of the discussion, the participants were presented the book, entitled Armenian Genocide Memorial, coauthored by Kévorkian, and French physician and medical historian Yves Ternon.
