    PROTEST ACTION IN NEW YORK

    A1+
    [07:13 pm] 23 April, 2007

    On April 21 Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), Armenian
    Charity Foundation and "Vardanants Sisters and Brothers" Organisation
    initiated a protest action in "Times" Square of New York. Thousands
    of people participated in the rally.

    The protest action was dedicated to the 92th anniversary of the
    Armenian Genocide. It is one of the great events organized by the
    U.S. Armenian communities to commemorate the victims of the great
    massacre.

    The U.S. senators Charles Shumer, Robert Menendes, members of the
    Representatives Chamber Frank Palown, Adam Shift and Charoline Malony,
    John Avans, the U.S. former Ambassador to Armenia, made speeches. They
    all urged the U.S. Congress to pass a resolution reaffirming the
    Genocide.

    To note, a number of marches and rallies, are scheduled in the
    U.S. cities on April 24, Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day.
