Protest for Justice

September 19, 2009: 12 – 3pm
Permanent Mission of the Republic of Armenia to the United Nations
119 East 36th Street, New York, NY

Join the AYF Eastern Region to Show:

  • Support for Armenian Genocide Recognition
  • Protest against efforts to undermine Genocide Recognition
  • Protest against relinquishing Our rights to Western Armenia

Armenia, Turkey and Switzerland have announced protocols for the establishment of diplomatic relations between Turkey and Armenia which include these unacceptable provisions:

  • Forming an historical commission aimed at questioning the historical record of the Armenian Genocide.
  • Confirming the illegal and immoral border between Turkey and Armenia which resulted from the Genocide.
  • Questioning Artsakh’s independence and considering concessions to Azerbaijan as a precondition to opening this border.

While borders can be opened and closed effortlessly, these compromises by the government of Armenia can not be retrieved so easily. The dedication of our past demands we protest for our future.
