I don’t think President Obama will use the Genocide term in his annual
address to US Armenian community, director of Armenian Center for
National and International Studies (ACNIS) Richard Giragosian stated.

"I don’t need US president or congress or any foreign parliament to
remind me of the obvious fact. What’s important is that Turkey should
recognize the Armenian Genocide," the expert told a news conference
in Yerevan. As he noted with satisfaction, this year, for the first
time in Istanbul history, Turkish intellectual elite will commemorate
Armenian Genocide victims.

Dwelling on Armenia- Diaspora relations, Giragosian expressed his
regret over April 24 being the only day for Armenians worldwide
to become reunited. In conclusion, he spoke of the necessity for
solidarity of the whole Armenian nation in supporting human rights
and democracy.
