On May 19 we commemorate the genocide of the Greeks of Pontus, a chapter of the genocide perpetrated by the Turkish state in the early 20th century against its Christian inhabitants that resulted in the deaths of more than 2.5 million Armenians, Greeks, and Assyrians. Dror Ze’evi, a professor of Middle Eastern studies at Ben Gurion University of the Negev and the co-author of the book “The Thirty-Year Genocide: Turkey’s Destruction of Its Christian Minorities, 1894-1924,” joins Thanos Davelis on this anniversary to look into how Turkey’s Greek, Armenian, and Assyrian communities disappeared as a result of a staggered campaign of genocide.
