German Documentary
"AGHET"

A 90-Minute documentary in German and firstly shown on German Television and now being screened publicly in Germany has been widely acclaimed as a robust response to all those who deny the veracity of the Armenian Genocide.

The Documentary is on U-Tube but is in 10 segments.  There have been efforts by Turkish authorities to have it removed from U-Tube, but the following link has been set up showing the 92-Minute Documentary in its entitity:

The Armenian Community & Church Council of Great Britain (ACCC) has followed with deep concern the developments which have on the 10th of October 2009 culminated in the signing of the Protocols for the establishment of Diplomatic relations between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Turkey.

The ACCC respects the absolute right of the Government of Armenia, as a Sovereign State, to enter into Agreements which they consider would benefit in one way or another the State and population of the Republic of Armenia and we hope and pray that Agreements between Armenia and Turkey, as with all other States, result in the establishment of good neighbourly and Diplomatic relations, peaceful co-existence, and the improvement of the economic status of Armenia and its population. 

The ACCC unreservedly reaffirms its support of the Independent Republic of Armenia, and would under all circumstances do all within its abilities to make certain that Armenia flourishes as an independent State and maintains a position in the World as a respected, honourable and peaceful State, enjoying good neighbourly relations with all its neighbours.

However, the ACCC wishes to express its strong reservations at the wisdom of entering into the Agreements defined by the Protocols as it considers that there are certain provisions within them which would be detrimental to the interests of the Armenian Nation.

The Agreements involve the concession of historical Armenian heritage, human and legal rights, and the recognition of - and reparation for - the crime of Genocide committed against Armenians in Ottoman Turkey between 1915 and 1921 by introducing an element of doubt to the veracity of the Genocide.

We therefore sincerely hope that the Government and National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia will take into consideration the serious concerns expressed by communities and organisations within Armenia as well as the Diaspora and will act accordingly during their deliberations for the ratification of the Agreements.

The accc website and its Events Diary is a service for the community. Organisations should note that the events diary is simply a facility by which events organised in the UK can be listed in one place so that all members of the community may have the ability to see what events are happening at any specific time. Organisations should therefore take steps to make certain their events are included in the Diary. The Events Diary is not meant to " advertise" any event and each organisation should make its own arrangement to advertise its organised event, and the accc can not be held responsible for any lack of attendance at any event due to the possible omission of the event from the Events Diary. The accc will endeavour to include in the Diary all events notified to the webeditor, but can not guarantee that all events organised in the U.K. whether notified or not, will be listed in the Diary
We will be pleased to include in this section any event by any Armenian organisation in the UK which informs us of their activities and dates.    We strongly urge all organisations to make use of this facility and to publish their functions on this page and we also suggest to all to refer to this page when planning a function so as to avoid function overlaps ('khatchatzevoum') on the same day, or planning of similar functions within a reasonable period from another.
