WASHINGTON, NOVEMBER 11, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. Republican
nominee for president in the last presidential elections in the
United States John McCain declared that the Armenian Genocide is a
historic fact.
According to Asbarez, in his interview to the Voice of America McCain,
who had refused to adopt such a position during his election campaign,
said that the assertions of the Armenian Genocide are grounded
by facts.
"I believe that a genocide was committed to Armenians and I think there
are a lot of facts in this connection. The Armenian and Turkish peoples
and states are not able to forget the events occurred in the past,
therefore they are going to develop their relations many-sidedly. It
is the first time the sides take steps recording progress, which is
praiseworthy," the Republican Senator said.
