The Armenian Council of America PAC sent a letter addressed to Barack
Obama congratulating him on his reelection as the President of the
United States. The letter also noted the community's hopes that the
administration will address issues of great importance for Armenian
Americans. The following is the letter in its entirety:
Dear President Obama,
The Armenian Council of America-PAC (ACA-PAC) would like to take this
opportunity to congratulate you on your momentous victory in the 2012
Presidential Elections.
Your plans set forth to recover the economy and the urgency to restore
faith in the American working class has evoked a new sense of
confidence that was lost in the American people during these harsh
economic times of home foreclosures, unemployment and poverty.
We applaud your conviction in giving every American a chance to
succeed and ensuring that healthcare will be available and affordable
for the middle class and low-income families.
As a proud Armenian-American political organization that endorsed you
for your second term as President, we hope that in the next four years
your Administration will address the following issues that are of
great importance to Armenian-Americans:
1. Urge Azerbaijan to refrain from hostile rhetoric and actions
against the Republics of Armenia and Karabagh and seek a lasting
settlement for Nagorno-Karabakh conflict based upon America's founding
commitment to the principles of democracy and self determination.
2. Urge Turkey to reopen its border with Armenia without any
preconditions and re-emphasize the need for Turkey to come to terms
with its own history and accept the Genocide as a historical fact.
3. Utilize the proper English term of Genocide in reference to the
Genocide of Armenians by the Young Turks in the Ottoman Empire.
4. Have your foreign policy team pay more attention to issues of
governance and development in the Republic of Armenia.
5. Make the safety and security of Armenians and other vulnerable
minority communities affected by the Syrian conflict a priority.
We are looking forward to your leadership in these matters for the
next four years and beyond.
