YEREVAN. – January 27 is the International Day of Commemoration in memory of the victims of the Holocaust. I express my support to the Jewish community in Armenia and wish endurance of the spirit to the heirs of the Holocaust survivors. Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) Arman Tatoyan issued a statement about this.

"The Holocaust and the Armenian Genocide are one of the most terrible crimes ever committed against humanity," he said, in particular. "Condemning the genocides and giving them a proper assessment is a key issue in preventing such crimes, and as a symbol of respect to the memory of innocent victims."

He added that this photo is that of the Yerevan monument to the Holocaust and Genocide victims, and its two columns symbolize the similarity of the fates of Armenians and Jews.
