ISTANBUL, JUNE 25, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The director of London's Komitas Institute, historian Ara Sarafian will present the Turkish translation of James Bryce's and Arnold Toynbee's book "The Treatment of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, 1915-1916. Documents Presented to Viscount Grey of Falloden by Viscount Bryce" to the Turkish deputies on June 26 in Ankara. Sarafian will give a book to each deputy. According to the Marmara daily, there is a common opinion in Turkey that the book was written by the English government in 1916 to carry out Armenian propaganda. The Turkish parliament sent a letter of protest to the parliament of England on the occasion of book's translation. According to Ara Sarafian, the Turk deputies do not have enough information about what really had happened.
