Lithuanian president Rolandas Paksas, who is in Yerevan on an official call, today visited Memorial of the victims of the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey. Laying a wreath to the monument, R. Paksas noted in a conversation with journalists that the Armenian people has had a heroic historical past, some moments of which were really tragic.
