YEREVAN, JUNE 16, ARMENPRESS. The members of the initiative “Nor Zartonk” founded by the Armenians of Istanbul paid a tribute to the socialist figure Mateos Sargsyan (Paramaz) and 19 other revolutionary figures killed during the Armenian Genocide of 1915 at the Armenian Edirnekapı Martyr's Cemetery. As Armenpress reports, the aforementioned was informed by the Turkish marksist.org.

The attendees recalled how Armenian figures were hanged in Beyazıt Square of Istanbul on June 14­15.

“The state has not changed at all since that day till now. Paramaz and his friends were judged the same way as Hrant Dink was judged and condemned to death in accordance with Article 301. The process of rewarding the murderers of Armenians goes on,” Sayat Tekir who made the announcement on behalf of “Nor Zartonk” mentioned, highlighting that attacks on the Armenian cultural heritage continue in our days.
