After his visit to Turkey dated on 6 April, the President of the
United States of America Barack Obama will use "genocide" term in his
speech of 24 April, says Kiro Manoyan, the director of ARF Armenian
Cause office in Yerevan. "He is paying a visit to Turkey to please
the Turkish before 24 April," said K. Manoyan in a press conference
today. The adverse developments would offence the Armenian Community
in the U.S.A, he says. "It should be taken into account that Obama’s
visit to Turkey has been marked just a day before the State Secretary
Hillary Clinton arrived in Ankara. Such a quick decision leaves no
other comments," he says.

According to him there are some other interpretations to the situation
– Obama might pay a visit to Turkey to say that the relations with
Armenia should be improved as soon as possible. "After Obama’s
leaving, Ali Babacan arrives in Armenia and signs a document here,"
says Kiro Manoyan adding that he does not agree with the current
statement. To the question whether it is not a Romanism to think that
the U.S. President will mention "genocide" in his speech, Kiro Manoyan
answers: "No, because the Americans treat the question rather seriously
stressing that no other American official speaks about the issue. This
is the only question that the American party does not wish to publish
the content of their negotiations with the Turkish. I think, we think,
that during his visit to Turkey President Obama will say that he will
keep his promise." Note that saying "we think" Kiro Manoyan meant ARF.
