This Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day, we honor the memory of the 1.5 million Armenians who were systematically murdered by the Ottoman Empire. Bob Menendez, chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, wrote this on Twitter. 

“Immensely proud to have led Senate recognition & that the US President joined us in affirming the facts of this ultimate evil,” he added.  

“As we stand with the Armenian community worldwide, we turn our attention to Nagorno-Karabakh. I condemn Azerbaijan's Lachin Corridor checkpoint, which threatens to exacerbate Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians' acute humanitarian crisis. It's time to halt security assistance to Baku,” Menendez noted as well.
