Betrayed Armenia

"Betrayed Armenia" by Diana Agabeg Apcar is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the massacres of Armenians, particularly during the events leading up to and following the Armenian Massacres of April 1909 in Cilicia, shedding light on the suffering of Armenians under Ottoman rule. It aims to raise awareness about the historical and systemic oppression faced by the Armenian people and their quest for survival and autonomy." "The opening of "Betrayed Armenia" presents a harrowing overview of the Armenian Massacres, asserting that these atrocities were orchestrated by the Young Turks, challenging the earlier belief that Abdul Hamid was solely responsible. Apcar reflects on the characteristics of the Armenian people—intelligent and industrious— and describes their deep love for nationality, positioning it against the historical backdrop of oppression. The narrative is imbued with a sense of urgency, prompting a call to action for intervention from Christian nations to prevent further massacres, as Apcar laments the helplessness of the Armenian population against such brutality and questions the role of European powers in allowing this suffering to perpetuate."
