The Chairman of the United States House Committee on Foreign Affairs Ed Royce called President Obama to recognize the Armenian Genocide.
“One hundred years ago, Ottoman authorities began their calculated attack on the Armenian community. The cold, systematic execution of so many people, and the subsequent indifference by the international community, set a chilling precedent for other genocidal leaders of the twentieth century. There is no statute of limitations for such horrors. The need to atone for these atrocities remains as strong today as it was in 1915. The 1.5 million innocent men, women, and children whose lives were taken demand recognition” was mentioned in the declaration of Royce. He also urged Turkey to reconcile with that dark page of their history.
Recently various famous international media also referred to the recognition of the Armenian Genocide and made some rough posts towards Ankara.
