The memories of Armenian Genocide survivors will play a crucial role in achieving the fair solution of the Armenian cause, ethnographer Vergine Svazlyan finds.

"I have worked diligently for 50 years, collecting memories from survivors," she told Wednesday a news conference.

"Memories should have been collected and submitted to the scientific community. All this could have a significant role in the recognition of Genocide," she said.

Vergine Svazlyan has worked for 55 years to publish various works related to the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Turkey in early 20th century.

In her book titled "Armenian Genocide: Memories of Survivors," the author compiled the memories of 6000 Armenians who survived the great tragedy.

The new edition of the book is due to be published in the nearest future. It is also available in English and Turkish languages.
