EUROPEAN ARMENIAN FEDERATION FOR JUSTICE AND DEMOCRACY DISAPPOINTED WITH OBAMA’S ADDRESS

NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY
APRIL 29, 2009
BRUSSELS

The European Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy expressed
disappointment on behalf of itself and Armenians of Europe on the
occasion of President Barack Obama’s April 24 address, in which
instead of the expression "Armenian Genocide" he used the words "Meds
Yeghern." According to Hilda Tchoboian, the Chairperson of the European
Armenian Federation, millions of Armenians, who believed the promise
given by President Obama are disappointed today and all manipulations
connected with improval of Armenian-Turkish relations don’t affect
the core issue: the Turkish State remains politically and criminally
liable for the Genocide toward the Armenian People. The Federation
stands by the opinion that any "road-map" that bypasses the core
issue of the Right to Justice of the Armenian People "victims of the
Genocide" will be condemned by the whole European Armenians.
