On April 29, the Lebanese delegation led by Lebanon's State Minister Michel Pharaon accompanied by Armenian Minister of Economic Development and Investments Suren Karayan visited Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute and Tsitsernakaberd Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex, paying tribute to the memory of the Armenian Genocide victims.

Michel Pharaon left a note in the Memory Book of Honorable Guests of the Genocide Museum-Institute.

“It is difficult to believe what we saw here, but, unfortunately it is true,” in his text written in the Memory Book of Honorable Guests of the Genocide Museum-Institute Pharaon noted.

“I saw a hope amid all this pain – a hope to live. Everything is different from the distance, but here, seeing this touching images every person in the world must simply accept and recognize the fact of the Armenian Genocide. The most important thing is the recognition itself. I come from a country the people of which faced great sufferings in the same period. All of us in Armenia and Lebanon realize that this darkness must be prevented. Today we must take efforts to stop the bloodshed in all over the world through all the high-level international organizations,” Michel Pharaon told the reporters.
