OBAMA WILL UTTER THE G-WORD: HRAYR KARAPETYAN
Tert.am
24.04.10
Armenians have not forgotten about the Armenian Cause, about what
happened to Armenian in the waning days of the Ottoman Empire in 1915.
"We have not forgotten about the Armenian Cause, nor have we forgotten
about the tragedy that happened to our country. The main part of our
intelligentsia was eliminated, and we lost most of our country. The
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide is important
not only for Armenia but for the whole humanity so that further
atrocities will be prevented. Especially given the country under
discussion [meaning Turkey] is speaking today with the same style,
with preconditions," Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutiun,
ARF-D) MP Hrayr Karapetyan Told.am in Tsitsernakaberd today.
Karapetyan is hopeful that US President Barack Obama will pronounce
the word "genocide" as the recent developments in the Armenia-Turkey
normalization proved that Turkey has acted cunningly with Armenia
and is constantly trying to delay the normalization process and is
hopeful that Obama will not utter the G-word this year either.
In his words not only Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan, but all
the humanity, all others world leaders, especially Obama, should
realize that Turkey is using this normalization issue for political
speculations.
"If Obama utters the word ‘genocide,’ it will be an impetus that the
Congress will recognize the Armenian Genocide," said Karapetyan.
