New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s statement on the anniversary of the Armenian Genocide has been actively circulated in our public sphere.

In a post on his X social network on April 23, he also referred to the events that took place in Artsakh.

After that, Mamdani became the target of Turkish-Azerbaijani informational and political attacks.

Ordered and paid for articles continue to be published against him in the American press. In the article of the newspaper “Daily Media” of New York, which was published about a week ago, the mayor is answered in, guess who’s words, of course, Aliyev’s candidate, Pashinyan.

The quote is: The RA Prime Minister said: “How is it that there was no Genocide agenda in 1939 and how did that agenda appear in 1950? How did that happen?”

When I say that every word and action of the current authorities is directed against us, this is exactly what I mean. Do you understand the extent of the danger of all this? If so, then definitely say NO to Aliyev’s candidate on June 7.
