No land in the history of mankind has witnessed inhuman practices such as murder, destruction, cruelty and looting as Near East.

Its history is stained with the blood of the innocent victims.

Any comparison of such tragedies with the western counterpart did not rise to the level of the massacres committed against us.

Those massacres were horrible in its essence whether its length, areas covered and the number of victims which according to the all international agencies exceeded more than two millions Armenians, Assyrians, Greek and others in the beginning of the last century and exactly between the periods 1915-1919.

Those crimes were perpetrated by the then only monster, that is to say, Anatolia monster that relied on Kurds, moreover those crimes did not come from vacuum but they were the result of a blind demagogical ultra-nationalist policy which dominated the political arena in Turkey, with the suppression directed against human right thinking which is so far going on.

The ethnic cleaning which took place in Turkey had changed completely the demographic composition of the citizens of the republic of Turkey, besides these Practices had knowledge to lose their enriched culture.

Annually and on the 24th of April remember each of the Armenian people, and the Assyrian people alongside peace loving nations round the world the memory of the martyrs who met martyrdom and this occasion is to minimize the suffering of hundreds of Thousands of children and grandchildren of survivors of the genocide which is the first in the 20 century.

There is no doubt that indifference by the world to the mass killing of our people during the First World War led to the extermination of more than six millions Jews. Stemming from this fact and the countless number of Armenians victims and their suffering began world organizations pay attention to this tragedy.

With the same pace and with the same scheme succeeded Turkish element to eradicate other communities including Assyrians and all the churches affiliated. It was indeed a barbaric act in order to create a harmonious society free from non-Turkish element.

It is well known for people living with a legacy of civilization to not comply with the tragedies and tribulations and become captive to them. The people of Armenia and for decades, is facing the future and the death of hundreds of thousands of human victims of the genocide strongly and this did not lead to the death of the Armenian nation sister, so the nation of a new future belongs to those who embrace the issue of safe and fought and sacrificed for it, here are the sons and grandsons of the martyrs, the survivors of the racism of the Turks, the Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks who did not surrender.

The Armenian and Assyrian nationalist has a firm entity, roots throughout history, and boot peoples aspirations and dreams, that was on the level entries of individual or authorities of national, social and cultural rights, both owners of the issue and the land , and the two brotherly peoples faced the domination of Ottoman and its tyranny.

We and our fellow Armenian suffer the same plight one of them wearing Armenian and other Assyrian , Turks did not try to rape the lands and leave the Armenian ,but beyond that all the existing nationalities, and we as Assyrians in the last decade we have emphasized that the essence of our cause with our fellow Armenians will not be affected by some of the individual positions here and there were some are trying and for purposes of personal and selfish, and the parties or infiltrators from other nationalities, trying to plant the seeds of selfishness between the two brotherly peoples, the Armenian and Assyrian On the subject of the massacres did not achieve their wish without cooperation between organizations and Institutions of the two peoples in many countries of the world.

That affirm that we belong to the plight of one and that is reflected in the decision by the Armenian government to grant a piece of land in the city of Yerevan, to establish a monument to the martyrs of the Assyrian victims of massacres, genocide and it is hoped to start building in the near future in addition to the support and assistance from the government of Armenian organizations to the Assyrians in Armenia on the level of cultural, educational and media deserves all the appreciation.

No force will stand in our way no matter how long it takes to attain recognition from those who committed massacres, blood has mixed on the same land for the same reason it is the same planners and perpetrators of genocide and those still deny it to this day.

Today the Armenians, Assyrians, Greeks, after 96 years, still suffer from deprivation by the world powers. We must stand and condemn those terrible massacres committed against our peace and freedom and demand to condemn and denounce these massacres committed by the Ottoman Turkish state and that was against all the human values Armenian and Assyrian were vulnerable to the tyranny of the Turkish and the fate of one common, and were vulnerable to poverty and misery, persecution and displacement Armenian and Assyrian are seeking to return all the land seized and counties as citizens and not just a minority.

Armenian and Assyrian are seeking to gain recognition of the Turkish state, as the legitimate heir of the Ottoman Empire, and what it did right from the genocide and massacres of compensation for such damage.

There is no force in the world can stand in our way no matter how long it takes to attain recognition from those who committed massacres, on the same land for the same reason. It is the same planners and perpetrators of genocide and those still deny it to this day.

Today the Armenians, Assyrians, Greeks, after 96 years, were still suffering from deprivation by the world powers, itself with a renewed determination to recognize the just and legitimate operations of systematic murder and no matter their religious beliefs and of Ideology political, it must stand and condemn those terrible massacres committed against our peaceful, is a powerful peace and freedom demand to condemn and denounce these massacres as a crime against the human values.
