The Armenian community in the United States and the Hay Dat (Armenian Cause) Committee are disappointed with U.S. President Barack Obama’s work over the last year, particularly with his failing to keep his election pledges – recognition of the Armenian Genocide, development of the U.S.-Armenia relations and increase of assistance — Elizabeth Chuljian, Press Secretary of the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), told NEWS.am.

“Now there has to be an opportunity before April 24 for him to specify his viewpoint. In this case the Armenian community and Hay Dat will continue working with not only the Obama administration, but also with the U.S. Congress, because it is high time for the United States to specify its position and recognize the Armenian Genocide,” she said.

In this context Chuljian said that Hay Dat will continue working with U.S. Congress members and Senators from Massachusetts. “Also, letters should be addressed to President Obama to remind him that he has gone back on his pledges over the last year – and not only concerning the Armenian Cause,” the ANCA representative said.
