    Default Biden administration to recognise the Armenian genocide

    President Joe Biden told his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Friday he plans to recognize the 1915 massacre of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire as a genocide, according to a person familiar with the conversation.

    Readouts from the White House and Turkish presidency did not mention the issue. The call was described by the person familiar as "tense." Bloomberg was first to report that Biden told Erdoğan of his intentions.
    CNN previously reported Biden was preparing to recognize the century-old atrocities against Armenians as a genocide, fulfilling a campaign promise. Biden's predecessors in the White House had stopped short of using the word, wary of damaging ties with a key regional ally.

    Yes, the US recognise others' all massacres, but theirs.

    USA has been doing that too, and a hell of a lot better than Turkey. We don't need your straw-man or red-herring logic fallacy, so stop making distractions and diversions.

    I already stopped. I just made one comment, just one comment. But this comment of yours could be a trigger for carry on making them. Don't you think?

    So, you stop.

    This Statement of Recognition is to rectify decades of American Presidents who either sold out the genocide recognition, or cowered from it in fear of Turkish diplomatic reprisals. It's a way to put the US Executive Body on board with the Congressional Genocide Recognition Resolution. In regards to Trump, yes he did threaten to Veto it, but (for whatever reason) he let it slip through without a Veto, after the Senate passed it unanimously. Regardless of that, Trump didn't support it, out of fear that he would offend Erdogan, that's a big reason why I voted for a 3rd Party Candidate, in 2020.

    When excuses are made (for genocide), I have good reason to interject. What you did is what genocide deniers have been doing for decades; namely, to point out that countries like the USA, France, Germany, Belgium, Et cetera, haven't owned their own genocidal issues. Even if that's true, it still doesn't excuse Ottoman Genocides against Ottoman Christians, whether it be the Armenians, the Assyrians, the Greeks, or the Maronites.

    We don't care anymore. It's Biden's choice. It's time for Turkey to join Russia and China. USA will regret this diplomatic error of theirs.

    You can't even stand the expression of one random Spanish person. Everybody has to agree with you. Otherwise you would attack people randomly.
