The management staff and footballers of FC Banants Yerevan visited Tsisterbakaberd memorial complex, dedicated to victims of the Armenian Genocide.
Banants head coach Tito Ramallo said that the visit was interesting and emotional: “We discovered the great pain that Armenia went through, learned more about people around us and began to understand their views, feelings and mindset.”
Footballer Soslan Kachmazov noted that although he read about the Genocide, the visit revealed a lot to him.
“I saw tapes and photos, and I couldn’t believe that people were capable of such things. I wish no such memorial complex would appear in any corner of the world. I cannot say I enjoyed the visit, that wouldn’t be the correct word. I am simply glad that I learned the reason of this tragedy, which is hatred,” Banants official website quotes Kachmazov.
