Armenian Genocide: Kemalist Massacres of 1919-1923The official Turkish history denies the Armenian Genocide, claiming that the Turkish Republic has nothing to do with the Genocide. The film “Kemalist Massacres” based on documentaries fully rebuts these claims. The Government of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk pursued the plans of young Turks by exterminating and displacing the Western Armenians from their historical motherland. The Kemalists filled the empties state budget on the account of the wealth that Armenians earned over centuries, paid most part of their foreign debts and on October 29, 1923 acclaimed the Republic of Turkey. Modern Turkey was built on the grounds of material, political and military values they appropriated during the Armenian Genocide.
