Assembly welcomes Hillary Clinton appointment U.S. Secretary of State
The Armenian Assembly of America (Assembly) welcomed the appointment of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) as the U.S. Secretary of State.

"During her tenure in the U.S. Senate, Senator Clinton has consistently supported affirmation of the Armenian Genocide," stated Assembly Executive Director Bryan Ardouny. "Never before have we had such an alignment whereby the incoming President, Vice-President and Secretary of State have a clear and demonstrated record of support for affirmation of the Armenian Genocide, as well as genocide prevention," he said.
