Beevor itse kommentoi uutista näin:
“In some ways I am amazed that it has taken them so long,” Beevor told the Guardian. “What depresses me the most is that once again we are faced with a government trying to impose its own version of history. I am fundamentally opposed to all such attempts to dictate a truth, whether it concerns denial of the Holocaust or the Armenian genocide, or the ‘sacred victory’ of May 1945.”
