State of Mississippi recognizes Armenian Genocide
Mississippi has become the last, the 50th US state to recognize the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that more than 20 countries, including Russia, have recognized the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire. On April 24, 2021, US President Joe Biden recognized the Armenian Genocide. However, most other countries have not officially recognized the genocide.
The "Yerevan.today" has reported, referring to the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), that the authorities of Mississippi have recognized the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire.
The "Armeniatoday.news" has added that Tate Reeves, the Mississippi Governor, declared this April to be the Genocide Awareness Month.
Let us remind you that Turkey and Armenia have no diplomatic relations. Disagreements exist between the countries over the resolution of the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, in which Turkey supports Azerbaijan.
