Washington - APA. Member of US House of Representative from Ohio Jean
Schmidt will make an official complaint against the Armenian, who
libeled her for non-recognition of false "Armenian genocide". Schmidt
decided to complain to the Ohio election committee against her former
rival in November 4 2008 elections David Grigorian, APA reports
quoting Milliyyet newspaper. Grigorian accused Schmidt in receiving
of blood money from Turks to deny the "genocide". Schmidt said it
was not correct to call the 1915 events as genocide. "I never voted
for the "Armenian genocide" resolutions at the Congress. I always
consider that it is not a problem of the Congress. I support the
idea of establishing the independent international commission of the
experts to resolve this issue once for all".
Schmidt reminded that US influential scientists also confirmed that
it wouldn't be correct to use "genocide" word for the tragic events of
1915. Famous historian Bernard Lewis and Norman Itzkowitz of Princeton
University, Stanford Shaw of the University of California, Justin
McCarthy from Louisville University, Guenter Lewy and Brian Williams
from the University of Massachusetts, David Fromkin, Boston University,
Avigdor Levy, Brandeis University, Michael Gunter of Tennessee Tech
University, Pierre Oberling, Hunter College, Roderick Davidson,
George Washington University, Michael Radu, Foreign Policy Research
Institute and military historian Edward J. Erickson are among them.
Schmidt said supporters of her election campaign had no relations
with the government of Turkey and she had the documents confirming
that. She said Grigorian violated election laws deliberately and she
demanded the election committee to take penal sanctions against him.
