Senator John McCain addressed the Armenian community of the
United States looking for their support in his presidential
campaign. Nevertheless in his message he failed to express his point of
view regarding certain issues that are most important to the Armenians
of Diapsora.
The Senator appreciated the Armenians' contribution to the development
of the American society, their support to the coalition actions in
Iraq and to the peacemaking mission in Kosovo.
The Presidential candidate avoided speaking anything about Karabakh,
Armenia's blockade by Azerbaijan and Turkey, and Armenia-USA
relations. With a specific American "politically correct" manner he
mentioned the "great tragedy" which suffered the Armenian people,
omitting such terms as "genocide", "Ottoman Empire" or even "Republic
of Turkey".
