President of Armenia Armen Sarkissian has thanked US President Joe Biden for recognizing the Armenian Genocide.

“Thank you, President Biden!

Recognition of the Armenian Genocide is a bold and inspiring act. It is important for the Armenian people and all those people in the world who are seeking justice. It opens new perspectives for Armenia-US relations.

This helps make the world a better place.

International recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide will help prevent genocide as a crime against humanity and abolish impunity for the crime around the world,” the President’s message reads.
