French Foreign Office requests following notice be given Turkish Government.
Quote. May 24th
For about a month the Kurd and Turkish populations of Armenia has been
massacring Armenians with the connivance and often assistance of Ottoman
authorities. Such massacres took place in middle April (new style) at
Erzerum, Dertchun, Eguine, Akn, Bitlis, Mush, Sassun, Zeitun, and throughout
Cilicia. Inhabitants of about one hundred villages near Van were all
murdered. In that city Armenian quarter is besieged by Kurds. At the same
time in Constantinople Ottoman Government ill-treats inoffensive Armenian
population. In view of those new crimes of Turkey against humanity and
civilization, the Allied governments announce publicly to the Sublime-Porte
that they will hold personally responsible [for] these crimes all members of
the Ottoman government and those of their agents who are implicated in such
massacres.
