Baku – APA. Armenian organizations in United States urge Armenian
President Serzh Sarksyan to announce that "Bilateral talks between
Turkey and Armenia over protocols cannot progress because of Turkey’s
destructive and hostile attitude", APA reports quoting turkishny.com
web-page. Diaspora also called Sarksyan to urge U.S. President Obama
to honor his pledge to recognize so called Armenian genocide.

Armenian organizations in United States urge Sarksyan, who
is in Washington to attend Nuclear Security Summit, to announce
Turkish-Armenian talks over protocols are in stalemate due to Turkey’s
destructive and hostile attitude. Diaspora also calls Armenian
President to urge Obama to honor his pledge to recognize so called
Armenian genocide.

Serzh Sarksyan is under intensified pressure of Armenian diaspora in
Washington where he went to attend Nuclear Security Summit. Sending
a joint letter to Armenian President, Armenian diaspora, lobbying
organizations and NGO’s called Sarksyan to urge Obama to recognize
so called Armenian genocide during his meeting with American president.

The letter, which is reflected by the web sites of Armenian diaspora
read, "And finally, we hope and expect — considering the hardening
and threatening posture of Turkey — that while in Washington, you
will announce that the process between Armenia and Turkey that has
begun with these signed protocols cannot continue because of Turkey’s
destructive and antagonistic posture."
