Georgette Avagian: October 10 now a day of mourning for DiasporaOctober 11, 2009 - 01:55 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Diaspora will not be silent, and we will take certain steps, Georgette Avagian, historian and representative of "Hay Dat" in Jerusalem told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, commenting on the recently signed Armenian-Turkish Protocols. According to her, Diaspora of Jerusalem is already organizing meetings and discussing further actions. Georgette Avagian noticed that the process of delaying the signing of the Protocols was just a game, designed for the Diaspora. "Now April 24 and October 10 become days of mourning for us, because today we have lost our historical lands, and the issue of the Armenian Genocide recognition has turned to dust," Georgette Avagyan said. She also stressed that the Diaspora will continue to fight. "We have fought against the Turks 100 years, and now we will continue to do the same," the representative of "Hay Dat" stressed.
