ArmInfo. 'It will be very correct and fair if President of the United
States Barack Obama fulfills his promise and pronounces a word Genocide
on April 24', Head of the parliamentary faction of ARF "Dashnaktsutyun"
party Vahan Hovhannisyan told ArmInfo.
'It is also important for the Armenian people to show activity as
regards recognition of the Genocide. Unfortunately, there are people
both in the Parliament and in the government, as well as in the
different public organizations who are even unaware of what April 24
is connected with', the parliamentarian emphasized. According to him,
the USA president gave a promise to his electorate during the election
campaign. Armenia is looking forward to see whether Obama will fulfill
his promise or not. 'If Obama pronounces a word Genocide, according
to his promise, we should turn this word into a resolution and set
new tasks to Turkey', V, Hovhannisyan emphasized. He also said the
primary target of B. Obama's upcoming visit to Turkey is discussion
of the Armenian- Turkish relations.
'Naturally, the Turkish party will claim that pronouncing of the word
Genocide hinders the process of establishment of the Armenian-Turkish
relations, however, the Armenian party must insist on the contrary',
the parliamentarian emphasized.
