Fulfilling expectations, U.S. President Obama has refrained from using the word ‘genocide’ in a statement to mark the 100th anniversary of the mass deportation of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, while praising two figures who used the term.

Turkey’s ruling party, along with two opposition parties, have released a joint statement “harshly condemning the partial approach” of the European Parliament (EP) which backed a motion to call the mass killings of Anatolian Armenians during World War I a “genocide.”
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday (15 April) warned that Turkey would ignore any decision by the European Parliament qualifying the 1915 killings of Armenians in World War I as genocide, saying such recognition would go “in one ear and out from the other”.

For Immediate Release April 24, 2014
Statement by the President on Armenian Remembrance Day
Today we commemorate the Meds Yeghern and honor those who perished in one of the worst atrocities of the 20th century. We recall the horror of what happened ninety-nine years ago, when 1.5 million Armenians were massacred or marched to their deaths in the final days of the Ottoman Empire, and we grieve for the lives lost and the suffering endured by those men, women, and children. We are joined in solemn commemoration by millions in the United States and across the world. In so doing, we remind ourselves of our shared commitment to ensure that such dark chapters of human history are never again repeated.
