11.10.2009 01:08 GMT+04:00
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian made the following
statement following the signing of the Turkey-Armenia protocols
earlier today.
`The success of Turkey in pressuring Armenia into accepting these
humiliating, one-sided protocols proves, sadly, that genocide pays.'
`President Obama, rather than honoring his pledge to recognize the
Armenian Genocide, went in exactly the opposite direction, applying
the full force of our nation's diplomacy to twist the arm of a
landlocked and blockaded Armenia ` a nation still struggling with the
brutal legacy of its near-destruction - into accepting a dangerous set
of protocols that call into question this very crime against
humanity.'
`The ANCA and all Armenian Americans will continue our efforts to
restore morality to our nation's response to the Armenian Genocide,
and, more broadly, to the cause of genocide prevention. We will also
work to prevent Turkey from using this agreement to further its
genocide denial campaign, to undermine the rights of the Armenian
nation, or to threaten the freedom of Nagorno Karabagh.'
