The U.S. on Tuesday called for a complete and fair acknowledgement
of the facts surrounding the 1915 events.
"The president and other senior administration officials have
repeatedly acknowledged as historical fact, and mourned the fact,
that 1.5 million Armenians were massacred or marched to their deaths
in the final days of the Ottoman Empire," State Department acting
spokeswoman Marie Harf told a daily briefing.
"A full, frank and just acknowledgement of the fact is in all our
interests, including Turkey's, Armenia's and America's," she said.
"Nations are stronger and they progress by acknowledging and reckoning
with pretty painful elements of their past," she said.
