The international union of genocide experts sent an open letter to
the President of the United States Barack Obama encouraging him "to
name Armenian massacre genocide" in his memory message. The experts
reminded the President that "in Your letter to the former President of
the U.S. George Bush dated on 18 March, 2005 You have encouraged him to
recognize Armenian Genocide", reports the Armenian Assembly of America.
"Recognizing Armenian Genocide You’ll prove that You are the leader You
have meant on 19 January, 2008, who tells the truth about the Armenian
Genocide and who says "no" to all other genocides," says the letter.
"President Obama’s visit to Turkey gives an exclusive opportunity to
touch upon this significant issue of human rights and to recover its
gaps," says the letter.
