Armenians to meet Barack Obama with a protest

27 May 2009 [13:11] - TODAY.AZ
US President Barack Obama expected to arrive in Los Angeles on Wednesday.
Armenian community will hold demonstration at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, where President Obama will stay, to protest the president for non-use of the word “genocide” in his April 24 address.
"We are not here to label the President as a Genocide denier, but rather to raise our voices and our concerns regarding his broken promises," said Arek Santikian, a spokesperson for the Armenian Youth Federation. "We also want the president to realize how disappointed the community is with his ill-advised cut in foreign aid to Armenia."
