Armenians in U.S. dissatisfied with country’s administration

Armenian National Committee of America sent the letter to Barack Obama expressing his indignation not only at this fact, but in general administration’s policy regarding recognition of the “Armenian Genocide.”

“This is the official policy of executive branch of the United States to actively oppose the recognition of this event and prevent adoption of laws to help Armenians return their property,”  ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian said in a letter.

He recalled Obama has broken promises to recognize the “Armenian Genocide” which he gave during the election campaign due to which he gained support of the Armenian community in the United States.

Armenians of America also upset with the White House’s support for the “road map” by Turkey and unprecedented pressure exerted on Armenia by the U.S. State Department to create a commission of historians, the idea promoted by Ankara for a long time.

Khachikyan insists on a private meeting to discuss these issues.
