US State Secretary Spokesman On Armenian Genocide

US STATE SECRETARY SPOKESMAN ON ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

WASHINGTON, DECEMBER 16. ARMINFO. We have acknowledged the terrible
tragedy that befell the Armenian community in Anatolia in the last
years of the Ottoman Empire. We’ve been encouraging scholarly and
civil society diplomatic discussions about those events, and we’ve
encouraged economic and political dialogue between Armenia and Turkey
on the subject, says US state secretary spokesman Richard Boucher.

I think the President issues a statement almost every year. The
reference I’d give you for this sort of formal policy is the April
24th, 2003, statement that President Bush put out. I would note
we’re following events in regard to the European Union and Turkey
very closely. This has been a matter of some interest to us.
