    Armenian Genocide

    14:30, 24 August, 2012

    YEREVAN, AUGUST 24, ARMENPRESS: The recently announced expansion of
    the Armenian National Institute website introduced a new section
    documenting the extent of press coverage and discussion of the
    Armenian Genocide over the course of the past decade. As Armenpress
    reports, citing Armenian National Institute, as part of this
    expansion, the section documenting the growing trend of international
    affirmation of the Armenian Genocide has also been updated. The
    Affirmation section reflects recent municipal, state, and federal
    level recognitions from around the world. In the United States, 43
    states are on record through legislative enactments and gubernatorial
    proclamations or statements. This list now includes: Alaska, Arizona,
    Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida,
    Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine,
    Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana,
    Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York,
    North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
    Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont,
    Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin. With 174 official documents
    posted supporting the record of affirmation by the states listed
    above, another 50 posted official enactments attest to the extent of
    international affirmation of the Armenian Genocide with 21 countries
    formally on record. To facilitate navigation of the growing list of
    international recognitions, a summery page listing the countries in
    alphabetical is provided: Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Cyprus,
    France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lebanon, Lithuania, Netherlands,
    Poland, Russia, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, United States, Uruguay,
    Vatican City, and Venezuela. Founded in 1997, the Armenian National
    Institute is based in Washington, DC, and is dedicated to the study,
    research, and affirmation of the Armenian Genocide.
