    ARMENIAN ASSEMBLY OF AMERICA STATEMENT REGARDING THE ASSASSINATION OF
    HRANT DINK

    The Armenian Assembly of America grieves the tragic murder of one of the
    most prominent Armenian voices in Turkey, Hrant Dink, who was gunned
    down in broad daylight for his public statements on the Armenian
    Genocide and his tireless civic activism. The Armenian Assembly
    condemns this blatant political assassination and mourns the loss of an
    exceptional human being and civil rights advocate who, well aware of the
    personal risks to him, was determined to serve as a catalyst for mutual
    understanding, tolerance and dialogue. Hrant Dink consistently
    championed democratic change in Turkey. He will always be remembered for
    his strong leadership and commitment to human rights.

    The Armenian Assembly of America is the largest Washington-based
    nationwide organization promoting public understanding and awareness of
    Armenian issues. It is a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt membership organization.
