Question

Review the statement. Between 1915 and 1917, the Ottoman government planned and carried out the deportation and extermination of 1.5 million to 2 million ethnic Armenians. Which accurately identifies who would most likely agree with the statement?

a Turkish soldier
an Armenian citizen
a US Congressman
an Israeli historian

Answer 1

The answer is B An Armenian Citizen. I had the same test and this was the right answer.

Answer 2

The correct answer is B) An Armenian citizen.

An Armenian citizen would most likely agree with the statement.

We are referring to the Armenian Genocide. The Turks, between 1915 and 1917, carried out the deportation and extermination of 1.5 million to 2 million ethnic Armenians. The Armenians were Christian Orthodox and the Turks of the Ottoman Empire were Muslims. That was a big part of the conflict since the 15th century. The Genocide of Armenians began on April 24, 1915. After the first assassinations of Armenian people, the Turks arrested and sent them to march in the Mesopotamian Desert without food and water.
