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.
