/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Already in 70s of the 20th century US and Turkish
Governments worked closely to prevent recognition of the Armenian
Genocide by the UN. According to the Armenian National Committee of
America (ANCA), lately unclassified documents of the US State
Department show it. These documents mainly represent US State
Department correspondence with the American delegation to the UN and
Ambassador to Turkey and contain recommendations how to cooperate with
the Turkish Government and the Turkish delegation to the UN not to
admit recognition of the Armenian Genocide.

«Documents shed light on the fact of close cooperation between the US
and Turkish Governments in denial of the Armenian Genocide,» ANCA
Executive Director Aram Hamparian said.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
