“… I am surprised that London should possess information which no one here is aware of and is unable to document. As a result, it has been impossible until now to determine exactly that Armenians have been massacred in any area. There is much talk about it but no one was able to give me certain and exact information. In particular the Armenian losses in Marash appear to be absolutely false.

A serious study of the figures shows that these Armenian casualties do not exceed 1000…”
Prime Minister Millerand, Archives des Affaires Etrangeres de France,Vol 9, Folio 3
