In a historic move, setting him apart from the route followed by previous US Presidents, Joe Biden has issued a statement formally calling the 1915 massacre of Armenians a genocide.
The announcement (scroll down for the full statement), made on Saturday 24 April, the day marking the 106th anniversary of the mass killings in the Ottoman era, was not a surprise following a Reuters report earlier in the week making public the recognition was expected to happen, according to sources.
Biden is the first U.S. president to use the term genocide in describing the mass killing against the Armenian people by the Ottoman Empire, breaking with his predecessors who did not want to undermine relations with Turkey.
U.S. President Joe Biden on Saturday recognized the mass killing against Armenians more than a century ago as a genocide, a move that could further worsen relations between the United States and Turkey.
The American people honor all those Armenians who perished in the genocide that began 106 years ago today, Biden said in a statement issued by the White House on Saturday, the Armenian Remembrance Day.
