Whitehouse: Armenian Genocide Must Never Be Repeated
Washington, D.C. - U.S. Senator Whitehouse (D-R.I.) today released
the following statement commemorating Armenian Genocide Remembrance
Day:
`The only way to prevent crimes against humanity in the future is to
shine light on the past. I'm proud to support the Senate's efforts to
recognize the tragedy that befell the Armenians for what it was - a
genocide that must never, ever be repeated.'
Whitehouse is a cosponsor of Senate Resolution 106, which calls on
the President to ensure that U.S. foreign policy acknowledges as
genocide the killings of 1.5 million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire
from 1915 to 1923.
