The bill on Recognition of the Armenian Genocide of April 24 will
be submitted to the consideration of the legis;ative bodies of the
North Dakota, USA. In particular, the draft law stated that in 1915,
the Turkish authorities were not only killing the Armenians, but also
destroying the Armenian churches, schools, libraries, pieces of art,
cultural monuments, i.e. they tried to destroy a civilization that
lasted for over three tousand years. In case, the legislative bodies
of the North Dakota recognize the Armenian Genocide, the number of
states that did so will amount to over 40.

At the same time, Adam Schiff, member of the Commission for Armenian
Issues at the US Congress, is going to submit a formula on the Armenian
Genocide issue to the Congress. The formula will be submitted to the
House of Representatives.
