US President Barack Obama used the term Meds Yeghern in his April 24
commemoration speech which in Armenian is equal to the expression
Armenian Genocide, said Onur Oymen, Deputy Chairman of the Turkish
largest oppositional Republican People's Party, quoted by CNNTurk.
Oymen also said that Obama's statement was unacceptable for them.
"The term Meds Yeghern in Armenian is equal to the term Armenian
Genocide. Obama considers the 1915 events as Genocide. He speaks in
his address about massacres, atrocities. For that reason his statement
is unacceptable for us," said Onur Oymen.
