SOGHOMON TEHLIRIAN’S RELATIVES DONATE VALUABLE MATERIALS TO THE AGMI


20.04.2024


The Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute hosted Soghomon Tehlirian’s cousins’ granddaughters, Arpi Oskanyan and Anush Oskanyan-Ohanyan on April 20, when they presented the AGMI with Soghomon Tehliryan's unpublished diary and nine photographs which were relics belonging to their family.

AGMI Director Edita Gzoyan thanked them for these exceptional materials, expressing the hope that the diary, in particular, would shed new light on Soghomon Tehlirian’s life, as well as about individual episodes of the Nemesis operation, which belong to the heroic pages of Armenian history. In her speech, she emphasized the importance of Soghomon Tehliryan’s trial in terms of the concept of genocide and the creation of the convention, stating: “Soghomon Tehliryan is ours, but he also belongs to the world.”

Then Gohar Khanumyan, AGMI’s chief registrar, displayed Soghomon Tehlirian’s photographs, personal documents, etc. which are held in various museums and archives in Armenia, including in the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute.

Arpi Oskanyan and Anush Oskanyan-Ohanyan said in their speech that, after a long discussion, they realised that the place for Soghomon Tehliryan’s unpublished diary and photographs was the Armenian Genocide Museum. Edita Gzoyan, Director of the AGMI, handed over letters of thanks, made from April 24 flower petals, to the donors as a sign of gratitude.
