Armenian Ambassador to Romania: international community’s position on Armenian Genocide issue and the protest of democratic community will force Turkey into recognizing the Genocide.

Over 20000 representatives of youth throughout Armenia participated in Genocide commemoration events, initiated by the All Armenian Patriotic Center.

AssyriaTimes: most of the Armenian and Assyrian historical homelands were occupied by Kurds and not by a Turkish or Arab majority.

On the day of the 96th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, PanARMENIAN.Net publishes one more story of Genocide survivor. The stories were provided by the office of U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA), who initiated the Armenian Genocide Congressional Record as an effort to parallel H. Res. 252, the Congressional resolution he introduced to recognize and commemorate the Armenian Genocide carried out by the Ottoman Empire from 1915 to 1923. Congressman Schiff is the primary sponsor of H. Res. 252, the Affirmation of the U.S. Record on the Armenian Genocide, which calls on the President and the U.S. Government to properly recognize the atrocities that occurred in the beginning of the 20th century and resulted in 1.5 million deaths, as Genocide.

Businessman Melkon Karakose said it is “unfortunate” that there are no Armenian candidates nominated for June 12 general elections.
