Yesterday, the U.S. Senate unanimously adopted the bipartisan Senate Resolution 150—the Armenian Genocide Resolution—formally recognizing the Ottoman Empire's genocide against the Armenian people.
The Armenian Genocide Resolution officially establishes “recognition and remembrance” of the Armenian Genocide as a matter of U.S. policy. In addition, the resolution rejects attempts to “enlist, engage, or otherwise associate” the U.S. government with the denial of genocide, and “encourage(s) education and public understanding” of genocide to help prevent modern-day atrocities.
