PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S. Congresswoman Linda Sanchez (CA-39) released
the following statement in recognition of Armenian Genocide Remembrance
Day:
"Today, we solemnly mark the 97th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide
by remembering the 1.5 million Armenians who were murdered in the
waning years of the Ottoman Empire. I hope that acknowledging this
atrocity will help heal the pain caused by the horrendous events
in 1915.
"As a proud co-sponsor of H. Res. 304 which calls on the President to
officially recognize the Armenian Genocide, I believe it is incredibly
important to acknowledge the atrocities. It is my sincere hope that
this recognition will help the Turkish and Armenian governments foster
a peaceful, mutually beneficial relationship. I would like to express
my sympathy to all descendants of Armenian Genocide victims and hope
we can all take time to reflect on this solemn day."
