In its editorial under `It was a genocide' title, the `Los Angeles
Times' turned yesterday to the possible recall of the US Ambassador to
Armenia John Evans, reminding that he has recognized the Armenian
Genocide.
"The Department of State avoids the concept of `genocide' not because
it does not want to argue about historic issues, but just considering
the fact of being the strategic partner of Turkey,' the newspaper
notes.
`The time has come that we should not close our eyes on the issue and
accept the history. The Armenian case cannot be considered even
marginal. Punishing the Ambassador for telling the truth about the
events of 90 years ago would suit a monarchy using dual standards, but
not a country leading in the free world,' the editorial of the `Los
Angeles Times continues.
