ArmInfo. On the day of the 108th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire, the Turkish Foreign Ministry issued a cynical statement praising those who were involved in organizing this crime against humanity.
" We condemn the Armenian terrorism, assasinating many members of our Ministry based on unfounded allegations distorting the history. We commemorate our martyrs with respect and gratitude. May Allah's mercy be upon them!", wrote the Turkish Foreign Ministry, with the hashtag of the 1915 event. The Turkish Foreign Ministry accompanied its post with a photo of those who participated in the organization of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire and were subsequently killed by the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia (ASALA), as part of Operation Nemesis - an action of retaliation by the Dashnaktsutyun party to kill the leaders of the Ottoman Empire, involved in the organization of the Armenian Genocide, as well as the leaders of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, who, according to the organizers, were involved in the massacre of Armenians in Baku in 1918. The operation was named after the Greek goddess of vengeance, Nemesis.
