Biden uses term “genocide” to describe 1915 events

Baku, Azerbaijan, Apr. 24

Trend:

US President Joseph Biden called the events of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire “genocide”, Trend reports citing the White House.

Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor, the Ottoman Empire, allegedly carried out so-called "genocide" against the Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated previously that there was no genocide against Armenians in the history of Turkey and the events of 1915 need investigation.

Turkey called on Armenia to open the archives of 1915 and create a joint commission to investigate the events. But Armenia has not yet responded to Turkey's proposal.
