※ 引述《Juche (人民英熊)》之銘言： : 我覺得很奇怪，法國人吃飽撐著.... : 土耳其有沒有殺亞美尼亞人又關法國什麼事啊？ : 另外，主張有沒有發生屠殺事件原本就是學術言論自由 : 法國憑什麼立這樣的惡法，去限制一個跟他無關的國家？ : 真是笑死人了.... Armenian diaspora bound by killings By Steven Eke Regional affairs analyst, BBC News http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6044682.stm From the Armenian perspective, the passing of a law in France forbidding denial of what Armenians consider to have been genocide is recognition of a great historical disaster. 以亞美尼亞人的角度來看法國通過法律否認亞美尼亞人曾遭受種族滅絕是犯罪可說是認清這一場歷史災難 There are politically and financially influential Armenian communities in several countries, most importantly the US, Canada and France. They have driven efforts to force recognition of the massacres in 1915 as genocide. 亞美尼亞團體在許多國家具有政治及金融上的影響力尤其是美國加拿大以及法國他們致力於讓世人了解1915年的屠殺是種族清洗 With Armenians so dispersed around the globe, the genocide theme has evolved into a central aspect of their national and self-identity. 由於亞美尼亞人分居世界各地種族滅絕這一話題已逐步成為他們國家與自我認同的中心思想 But in Armenia itself, perspectives on the mass killings are sometimes quite different from the angry and highly politicised debate abroad. 但是在亞美尼亞本土對大屠殺的看法有時卻決然不同於海外憤怒且高度政治化的爭辯 Seminal event One of the first things foreign visitors to Armenia are taken to see is the genocide memorial. 外國旅客到亞美尼亞首先會被帶去看一件種族滅絕的紀念碑 The towering concrete structure stands on a hill overlooking the country's capital, Yerevan. 這件高塔狀的水泥構造豎立在一座可以俯瞰首督Yerevan的山丘上 It houses a small, sombre museum and is generally a low-key affair - except on one of Armenia's public holidays, genocide memorial day, held in late April every year. 它收藏在一間小型且有點陰鬱的博物館而且通常是件低調的事情除了在亞美尼亞公眾假日種族滅絕紀念日在每一年的四月末舉行 Then a significant part of Armenia's population - just three-million or so strong - visit it to lay flowers. 然後約有3百萬或更多的亞美尼亞人會到訪並獻花 At other times, the killings are part of a shared history, but one obscured by daily life. 在其他日子這場殺戮只是大家共同承受的歷史的一部分在日常生活中隱晦不明 Armenia is very poor, and its people have much more immediate concerns to be worried about. 亞美尼亞十分貧窮人民有許許多多切身問題要擔心 That is not so among the Armenian diaspora. Revealingly, most of the best-known reflections of the killings, in music and literature, were produced outside Armenia. 而海外亞美尼亞後裔卻非如此很明顯地許多眾所周知關於大屠殺的回響不論是音樂上或文學上都在亞美尼亞本土以外產生 In France, and especially the US, Armenians have excelled in science and commerce, and have a vocal presence in politics and the judiciary. 在法國特別也在美國亞美尼亞人在科學界及商業界嶄露頭角在政治界及法律界也是頗有聲勢 This leads Turkey and its allies to speak of an "Armenian lobby", which they say exerts disproportionate influence. 這讓土耳其及他的盟友們稱為亞美尼亞遊說團盡力於不成比例的影響力 But among the diaspora, the mass killings in 1915 are the seminal event of modern Armenian history, something that binds together what is one of the world's most dispersed peoples. 但是在亞美尼亞後裔中這場1915年的殺戮是亞美尼亞現代史的開端一場將分居世界各地的同胞連繫起來的事件 Indeed, many diaspora Armenians passionately believe that the killings define latter-day Armenian identity. 事實上許多亞美尼亞後裔在情感上相信這場殺戮決定了日後亞美尼亞人的認同感 And it is the diaspora, rather than Armenia itself, that drives the effort to have those killings recognised internationally as genocide. 也因此在海外亞美尼亞人比亞美尼亞本土更努力去讓國際認清這場殺戮是種族滅絕 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 這是稍早在BBC的一篇報導但是找不到任何訊息是為什麼是法國社會黨提議並支持這個法案即使一戰期間法國ORIENT LEGION有許多亞美尼亞人與土耳其作戰那為什麼是社會黨提案而不是其他黨派法國社會黨與亞美尼亞人的關係為何還是說這只是法國政治界部分黨派為阻撓土耳其進入歐盟所使出的政治算計? -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.60.127.18
