U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations Samantha Power recalled denial of the Armenian Genocide during her speech dedicated to Nobel Laureate, Professor Elie Wiesel, the Armenian National Congress of America reported.
“Genocide denial against the Armenians, the horrors of his lifetime – Pol Pot, Bosnia, Rwanda, Darfur, Syria, in his later years. He lived to see more and more people bear witness to unspeakable atrocities, but he also saw indifference remained too widespread,” the Ambassador said at the U.S. Holocaust Museum Memorial Tribute in Washington on Wednesday.
