ARFD ON PRES.BUSH STANCE ON ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
YEREVAN, APRIL 25. ARMINFO. Since his election US President George
Bush has avoided appropriately qualifying the Armenian Genocide, says
the Supreme Body of ARFD.
In his annual Apr 24 statement Bush refrained from qualifying the
events of early XX as "genocide" thereby ignoring relevant appeal by
178 congressmen and 32 senators. Appreciating Bush's commitment to
join the world Armenians by his statement ARFD at the same time is
concerned over his evading clear definitions and thereby devaluating
the moral, historical and legal consequences of the Armenian
Genocide, says the director of the Washington office of Hay Dat Aram
Hambaryan.
Hat Dat is concerned that the White House policy of the Armenian
Genocide non recognition is part of its wider policy on the issue of
genocide as such - this being proved by Washington's inactivity to
prerevent the genocide in Darfur, Sudan. And so Hay Dat is
cooperating with many NGOs for Washington to timely and effective
react to the Darfut conflict.
ARFD reminds that while meeting with the Armenian community of
Michigan in Feb 2000 presidential candidate Bush promised to call the
early XX events genocide but as president has failed to keep his
promise and keeps opposing any legislative initiatives to condemn
this crime against humanity.
