Turkey Strongly Criticizes Trump’s April 24 Statement
ANKARA, Turkey (A.W.)—Turkey’s Foreign Affairs Ministry strongly criticized United States President Donald Trump’s statement on “Armenian Remembrance Day 2017,” saying that the President’s words are derived from the information pollution created over the years by some Armenian circles in the U.S. by means of propaganda methods.”

This is exactly why Sultan Erdogan made a speech yesterday on April 24, expressing sorrow (but never Genocide of course), so that they can brag to the U.S. (and to the EU) about their noble efforts in reaching out to the Armenians!
Cowards , some day you will recognize the Armenian Genocide. As for my president , I expected more, he should of just recognize the Armenian Genocide, bc they know better. Remember THE ORPHAN RUG rug the refugees made to say thank you to American government for taking them in. America knows the truth so act like it.
Sad this Turkish government does not acknowledge
the TRUTH. Yes, I would expect MORE direct wording By
Pres. Trump.
About some mention of ORPHAN RUG—my GREAT GRANDFATHER, Garabed Khevont KURKJIAN
had an ORPHANAGE IN Agin {Egin}. Does anyone in this
READERSHIP have anything on a RUG, with an INSCRIPTION lettered into a rug ” Made by The Orphans of Agin”???
My grandmother Zvart and her much younger sister Rose Kurkjian survived the Agin massacres— and I interviewed my Aunt Rose on this..
Please advise– Edward A. Sarkisian

what do you expect from turkey, they are nothing but yellow cowards. they are aware of how much it will cost them if they acknowledge our Genocide.
Trump declines to use the world Genoside in describing Armenian death !!!
Mystery:
I assume that over the years many worthy PR firms have told the Turkish leadership that some form of admission will remove the issue from the world stage once and for all and will boost their image in what is laughingly referred to as Christian Europe.
Turk pols will respond that doing so is impossible due to the domestic opposition of so many. However, the same leaders must also admit that they for 40 years have promoted anti-Armenianism as a key concept of their educational system and culture. In other words, they have made it seemingly impossible to overcome the race hatred they have created.
I can’t figure it out. But Genocide recognition will never occur in Turkey.
