WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 23, ARMENIANS TODAY - NOYAN TAPAN. Ending
denial through affirmation of the Armenian Genocide, ending the
blockade are key issues to be addressed during the Senate Committee
on Foreign Relations hearing of Ambassadorial Nominee for Turkey,
James F. Jeffrey, for September 24, 2008.
"We are hopeful the nomination hearing is not a question and
answer session, which in the past has resulted in equivocating
on the historical fact of the Armenian Genocide," said Armenian
Assembly of America's Executive Director Bryan Ardouny, adding,
"This represents a critical opportunity for the U.S. Ambassador to
Turkey to go further than Ambassador Yovanovitch and this time to
squarely affirm the Armenian Genocide. The Armenian Genocide is a
historical fact and Mr. Jeffrey would be well served to follow in
the tradition of Ambassador Henry Morgenthau."
