1 answer
The Armenian Genocide was primarily conducted by the Young Turks and led by the Triumvirate of Ottoman Grand Vizier Mehmed Talaat Pasha (1874-1921); Ottoman Minister of War Ismail Enver Pasha (1881-1922); and Ottoman Minister of the Navy Ahmed Djemal Pasha (1872-1922). They led numerous Ottoman military units against Armenian civilians and ordered a number of the massacres. The Young Turks were assisted by Kurdish military units.
To this day, the Turkish government has refused to admit that the Armenian genocide even happened, but Kurdish leaders have apologized to the Armenian people for their assistance in the atrocities.

The Armenian Genocide has had a profound effect on the Armenian psyche.
Firstly, the Turkish government's failure to recognize the genocide and to strongly advocate against it has horribly affected Turkish-Armenian Relations, leading to bare recognition the countries. This failure on the part of many countries to recognize the Armenian genocide means that, unlike the Jews, they cannot take a small bit of solace in knowing that the people who masterminded the violence have paid. Most of the leaders like Mehmed Talaat, Ismail Enver, and Ahmed Djemal were illegally assassinated by Armenians after the war without any hearing of their crimes.
Secondly, the Armenian homeland was completely stripped of Armenians save for the small part in Russia/Soviet Union at the time. Entire villages were erased, others repopulated with people from central Anatolia, and most of the surviving villages were given new Turkish-language names. Many historic Armenian churches were destroyed completely. This full-scale overwriting of Armenian history on the land has had a profound effect on Armenians, giving rise to several irredentist movements in the past. In the present most Armenians agree that the land is now too Turk-ified and Kurdish to be Armenian land anymore, but some will search for any trace of where their family once came from.
Finally, it buttressed the Armenian nationalist desires. Unfortunately no great power was willing to support Armenian nationalism after Atatürk was able to reverse the Treaty of Sèvres and remove the Kurdish and Armenian states. This prevented Armenians from having their own country until 1991. This nationalism also manifested in the Wars of Nagorno-Karabakh, in which Armenians attacked sovereign Azerbaijani territory because a large percentage of ethnic Armenians live in certain enclave. Currently, the Nagorno-Karabakh region remains under illegal Armenian Occupation.

Mardin is a city in Turkey. It does have a lot of Kurdish people, but also people of other groupings. So it is not an exclusively Kurdish city.

No. Turkey has passed legislation banning any open discussion of the Armenian Genocide (part of Article 301) and uses its important diplomatic and economic position to prevent other countries from recognizing the Armenian Genocide. This has resulted in many Turkish diplomatic problems, like EU entry, which is conditioned on Turkey's acceptance of the Armenian Genocide. Failure to recognize the genocide has made it difficult to establish diplomatic relations between Turkey and the modern Republic of Armenia.
