US President Joe Biden s claim that the massacre of Armenians in 1915 under the Ottoman Empire was genocide has been welcomed by Armenia and roundly rejected by Turkey.
Biden made the comment on April 24, which is Armenian Remembrance Day.
“The American people honour all those Armenians who perished in the genocide that began 106 years ago today,” said Biden in a statement.
Former US presidents have refrained from using the word “genocide .
The killings have been recognised as genocide by over 20 countries, but others stayed away but there is no international consensus on the issue.
