US Congressmen Against International Indifference to a Century of Unchecked anti-Armenian Violence and Genocide
https://anca.org
Members of U.S. Senate and House taking part in the annual Capitol Hill remembrance of the Armenian Genocide stressed that the United States, as a matter of national policy, should be working toward a truthful and just recognition of this crime, official page of the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) reports.
During the evening remembrance program, legislators raised serious concerns, on a bipartisan basis, regarding the dangerous modern day implications of continued official U.S. and international indifference to a century of unchecked anti-Armenian violence and Genocide, even amid warning signs of renewed atrocities against Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
A prominent theme was the escalation of Azerbaijan’s attacks against NKR, which claimed several hundred Armenian and Azerbaijani lives between April 2nd and 5th. The annual Capitol Hill observance of the Armenian Genocide was organized by the Congressional Armenian Caucus in cooperation with the Embassy of the Republic of Armenia, Office of the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh in the U.S. and Armenian American organizations.
