SEN. MENENDEZ COMMEMORATES 98TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
WASHINGTON, April 25 -- The office of Sen. Robert Menendez issued the
following statement:
U.S. Senator Robert Menendez, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, stood in solidarity with the Armenian community on
Wednesday commemorating the 98th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
"We commemorate the 98th anniversary of one of the darkest events in
human history," said Menendez. "We will not forget, we cannot ever
forget. To me, genocide is genocide and I continue to support a
resolution to recognize the Armenian genocide and to use the lessons
of what clearly was an atrocity of historic proportion to prevent
future crimes against humanity. The world remembers 98 years later,
the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of the survivors
and those who perished. Here in the halls of Congress and around the
world, people of goodwill everywhere remember and will never forget."
