Resolution.
Howard L. Berman (D-CA), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs
Committee, announced today that it is his intention to mark up the
Armenian Genocide resolution (H. Res. 252) on March 4.
"All the facts prove it was a genocide", said Berman in his
introduction speech. Other members of the Committee pointed out
that the Armenian Genocide has been affirmed in the records of many
foreign countries, including also the US, Russia, Germany, and an
attempt to hold off the motion for some time in future is immoral and
unacceptable either to the memory of the sacrifice of this deadly event
in the Ottoman Empire and to its survivors. Moreover, the members of
the Committee have paralleled the events of 1915 with the massacre
of Jews during the World War 2. They emphasized that the Armenian
Genocide is the same crime against humanity as Holocaust.
