Armenians expect precise assessment on Genocide by U.S. President

The Armenian people will always wait for the U.S. president to utter the word "Genocide"- Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated at a joint press conference with the President of Switzerland Micheline Calmy-Rey, answering the question about the expectations for the forthcoming annual April address of the White House.

"We have always wished that the U.S. president gave precise assessments in his annual message and pronounced the word "genocide". Once I have personally asked about it to the U.S. president. But the desire and reality - are two different things, and best of all is when the desire coincides with the reality", S. Sargsyan said.

"Let’s wish that this time the expectations of the Armenian people come true.” However, if it does not happen the head of the country called on not falling into despair, and continue the efforts.
