Of course, the next question is why it took the international community so long to recognize it.
I wonder how much film-making had to do with the decisions. The well-known (for a Canadian) film-maker Atom Egoyan wrote and directed a film called Ararat that shed light on the issue. If you haven't seen it, it's well worth a rental, even if you don't care about the past or present political implications. It's quite an innovative and cerebral movie.
