The U.S. is doomed to recognition of the Armenian Genocide given that
42 states have already recognized it. However, this time also the U.S.
President Barack Obama will fail to pronounce the word "genocide",
Leader of the New Times Party Aram Karapetyan said on April 24 when
visiting the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial dedicated to the Armenian
Genocide victims.
"The United States' recognition of the fact of the Armenian Genocide
will be followed by a new painful phase for Turkey - the phase
of compensation and reparations. In this case the USA will offer
acceptable options for Armenia and Turkey", the politician said. He
added that the issue of criminalization of the Armenian Genocide
denial will not stop in France no matter who will become the president.
The Genocide of Armenians has been recognized by 42 United States as
well as by 21 countries, including Canada, Argentina, Switzerland,
Uruguay, Russia, Belgium, France, Poland, Slovakia, the Netherlands,
Greece, Cyprus, Vatican, Sweden, Lithuania. The European Parliament
passed a resolution recognizing the fact of Armenian Genocide in the
Ottoman Turkey on June 18 1987 and demanded the Council of Europe
exert pressure on Turkey in order that country recognizes the Armenian
Genocide. Turkey still denies the genocide of 1.5 million Armenians
in 1915-1923.
