Armenian Diaspora threatens U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Francis Ricciardone with recall

The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) called for an apology from U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Francis Ricciardone over his recent written response to a Senate inquiry, APA reports quoting the committee’s website. In his written response Francis Ricciardone said "Most of the Christian churches functioning prior to 1915 are still operating as churches”.

Regarding it as false, the Armenian National Committee of America says Francis Ricciardone remains committed to denying “Armenian genocide”. The Committee demands apology from Ricciardone, otherwise threatens him with recall.
