Swedish environmentalist and activist Greta Thunberg, who arrived in Armenia to boycott COP29 in Baku, visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial.

She was welcomed by the Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute, Edita Gzoyan, and escorted to the Armenian Genocide Memorial, familiarizing him with the history of the memorial. The Director of AGMI also mentioned the three cross-stones installed on the territory of Tsitsernakaberd in memory of the Armenians who died in the massacres organized by the Azerbaijani government in the cities of Sumgait, Kirovabad (Gandzak), Baku in the last century and the stories of five freedom fighters buried in front of Memorial Wall during the Artsakh war emphasizing the connection of what happened with the Armenian Genocide.

Greta Thunberg honored the memory of the innocent victims of the Armenian Genocide with a minute of silence near the Eternal Flame.

Edita Gzoyan escorted the guest to the Memorial Wall, behind which, in special niches, lay the earth taken from the graves of a number of foreign public figures, politicians, intellectuals and missionaries who raised their voices in protest against the massacres of Armenians and the genocide carried out by the Turkish government in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, summed up by small full jugs. Greta Thunberg listened with great interest to the pro-Armenian activities of Swedish missionary Alma Johansson.

The environmental activist also visited the Armenian Genocide Museum, where, accompanied by AGMI tour guide Elen Hakobyan, she familiarized himself with the permanent and temporary exhibitions, after which she made an entry in the museum's journal.

At the end of the visit, AGMI Director Edita Ghzoyan presented the guests of honor with books on the Armenian Genocide and the Artsakh problem.
