U.S. President Obama cites several past genocides but remains entirely silent on the Armenian Genocide

le=”text-align: justify; “>Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) Executive Director Aram Hamparian issued a statement in response to President Obama’s remarks at the U.S. Holocaust Museum, earlier today, outlining U.S. commitment to the prevention of genocide and mass atrocities.

“President Obama undermined his own commitment to ‘Never Again’ in his speech at the U.S. Holocaust Museum this morning, when, on the day before the annual commemoration marking the Armenian Genocide – the atrocities that Hitler himself referenced prior to launching the Holocaust – he cited several past genocides but remained entirely silent on the Armenian Genocide, the crime that, as a candidate for the White House, he so prominently and repeatedly promised to recognize,” stated Hamparian.
