On April 21, U.S. Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues hosted
annual Armenian Genocide Observance, with Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) calling for official U.S.
condemnation and commemoration of this crime against humanity.
As Armenian Ambassador to the U.S. Tatul Margaryan noted in his speech,
Armenia-Turkey rapprochement was a chance for Turkey to come to terms
with its past, but it keeps up its negation policy.
"The rapprochement can't take place to the detriment of Genocide
recognition. International recognition of the Armenian Genocide
will help normalize bilateral ties," the Ambassador said, RA Foreign
Ministry press office reported.
