The delegation of the Permanent Committee on Foreign Relations of the House of Representatives of the Kingdom of the Netherlands visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial


08.07.2024


The delegation of the Permanent Committee on Foreign Relations of the House of Representatives of the Kingdom of the Netherlands visited the Armenian Genocide Memorial on July 8. They were accompanied by Maria Karapetyan, a member of the RA National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign Relations, Victor Biyagov, RA Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and Jaap Frederiks, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Armenia.

Edita Gzoyan, Director of AGMI, warmly welcomed the guests and guided them through the Genocide Memorial complex, providing insights into its history and significance. She also shared the stories behind three khachkars erected at Tsitsernakaberd in memory of Armenians who perished in massacres orchestrated by the Azerbaijani government in Sumgait, Kirovabad (Gandzak), and Baku at the end of the 20th century. Additionally, she recounted the stories of five freedom fighters interred near the Memory Wall, who lost their lives during the Artsakh conflict. Mrs. Gzoyan underscored the link between the Armenian Genocide and contemporary instances of persecution and violence against Armenians, addressing historical and legal dimensions of the Artsakh issue while condemning Azerbaijan's anti-Armenian actions and propaganda.

During their visit, members of the delegation laid wreaths at the Memorial to the Victims of the Armenian Genocide and placed flowers at the Eternal Fire, observing a minute of silence in honor of the innocent victims of the genocide. They were then led through the Armenian Genocide Museum's permanent and temporary exhibitions by AGMI Director, after which they inscribed their thoughts in the Memory Book for Honored Guests.

At the conclusion of the visit, Mrs. Gzoyan presented the head of the delegation with books about the Armenian Genocide and expressed gratitude for their visit.
