/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The process of Armenian Genocide international
recognition has entered a new phase, head of "Hay Dat" International
Office Giro Manoyan stated to a press conference in Yerevan. He said,
currently Turkey has directed all his efforts towards preventing
discussions around 106th resolution that recognizes the Armenian
Genocide, in the U.S. Congress. "But actually Turkey betrays his
strategic ally and partner, which is unacceptable for the United
States," Manoyan stressed.
The "Hay Dat" Office head also noted formulations in U.S. State
Department's human rights report concerning Armenia can be viewed
as a method of pressure on Yerevan on the eve of parliamentarian
elections. "Such a report clearly shows that the United States being
a OSCE Co-Chair state, backs one of the conflicting parties. The
statement of U.S. Embassy in Armenia is also obscure concerning ANCA
Executive Director Aram Hamparian's comments on Richard Hoagland's
nomination as U.S. Ambassador to Armenia. Such statements are not
accepted in diplomatic practice," Giro Manoyan underscored.
As to the next steps of the Armenian side, Giro Manoyan thinks if
suddenly Turkey recognizes the Armenian Genocide, it is necessary to
demand that Ankara declares about his responsibility for the committed
crime. "Modern Turkey is the assignee of the Ottoman Empire and fully
accounts for the events in 1915," the "Hay Dat" Office head underlined.
The U.S. State Department in its annual report on Human Rights
concerning Armenia called the Nagorno Karabakh and the territories
under her control "occupied territories". It is also worth
mentioning that the United State's Embassy in Armenia "expressed
deep disappointment" for Aram Hamparian's words, who said that
the U.S. Senate will not approve Richard Hoagland's nomination as
U.S. Ambassador to Armenia.
The latter denies the Armenian Genocide and doubts in deliberate
actions of Ottoman Empire authorities. Aram Hamparian's statement is a
"wishful distortion of reality", says the statement of U.S. Embassy
in Armenia.
