Posted on May 12, 2021. U.S.-Turkey relations are in such terrible shape that the president’s statement is just another brick in the structure that is already collapsing. “There hasn’t been a better time for a statement like this,” Karol Wasilewski from the Polish Institute of International Affairs tells Onet, commenting on Joe Biden’s move. According to Father Tadeusz Isakowicz-Zalewski, chaplain of the Armenian community of Poland, it is a “huge, positive surprise.” On Saturday, Biden called the slaughter of Armenians a genocide. The U.S. president wrote this in a statement issued on the day of commemoration of the crime. The announcement speaks of 1.5 million Armenians “deported, massacred, or marched to their deaths in a campaign of extermination.”
