By John SolomouNicosia [Cyprus], May 2 (ANI): US President Joe Biden last month made good of his campaign pledge to formally recognize as genocide the deportation and mass killing of approximately 1,500,000 Armenians by the Ottoman Empire during World War I.
Reacting, Turkey rejected Biden s decision to formally recognize the Armenian genocide and accused the United States of trying to rewrite history. Turkey s Foreign Ministry summoned the US Ambassador to Turkey to express displeasure, pointing out that Biden s decision caused a wound in relations between the two countries that is difficult to repair.
