The new book by a member of the Union of Writers of Russia, the famous publicist J. S. Akopov and Professor, Doctor of Law, Honored Writer of Russia I.I. Bondarenko "Crime without repentance" was finally published. The publication is dedicated to the one of the most tragic pages in the history of the Armenian people - the extermination of children. Every nation knows that, having lost the younger generation, it is losing the future. Indeed, in the course of the atrocities committed, not only innocent children's souls were lost, but also future talented poets, scientists, thinkers who could make their invaluable contribution to the global treasury of culture. Killing only for belonging to a particular nation or faith is a grave crime against humanity. Killing teenagers and newly born babies who have never been given the chance to know life is a double crime, a crime that cannot be justified.
The book is the final part of the author’s trilogy, which includes two more monographs which were published earlier: “The Armenian Genocide” - the content of which follows from the title, and “By Strength and Cross”, dedicated to the history of Russian-Armenian relations. The current book is more publicative in nature, but, like the previous ones, contains a deep analysis of historical events. The authors' intention is not only to describe the tragedy in detail, but also to reveal its roots and causes. Awareness of what has happened, in turn, makes it impossible to repeat this in the future, and puts moral barriers on the way to the next inhuman plans. The book is of undoubted interest for politicians, publicists, for all those who would like to know the true modern history.
The preface to the book was written by the President of the Public Organization "Union of Armenians of Russia" , UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador, Chairman of the Presidential Commission for Informational Support of State National Policy of the Council on Interethnic Relations under the president of Russia - A. A. Abramyan. In it, in particular, it says: “The purpose of the book is to draw the attention of readers to the crime of genocide against children - and it can be said that it have been achieved. William Saroyan is a classic of American prose, whose name is on a par with the names of Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, John Updike, in the preface to the novel by Levon Surmelyan, "I appeal to you, ladies and gentlemen," written in New York in 1945 wrote: “The author is one of many Armenian children ... who managed to outwit the enemy and not die. Their peers died at motherland together with the world that has perished. Their enemy was not a specific nation or a specific people. Their enemy is an Evil, the same Crime abstracted without repentance, as the concept of an Evil in a parable. The children, of course, were innocent. If they belonged to any nation, then it was a nation of children. Human Evil sought to destroy them, but many children survived, as if they lived in a fairy tale, and not in reality. These words of the great prose writer who, by virtue of God's grace, managed to miraculously survive, are the words of the children of the Armenian genocide. In the children's tears and childhood memories of the writer, the depersonalized world of Evil and the world of the biblical Ararat remained a symbol of the triumph of Good, faith and life ..."
