Obama hasn't forgotten, but...
Why isn't US President Barack Obama recognizing the Armenian Genocide Resolution 252 when he had promised recognition during his electoral campaign?
This was one of the questions addressed to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who was invited to Vladimir Posner's television show on Russia's First Channel.
"I don't think anybody has forgotten that, but a very important thing happened and that was the normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey," said Clinton.
Clinton recalled that she was present during the signing of the Protocols on normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey.
"There was an agreement in the Protocols on creating a historical commission that would look into all issues of the past and I believe that is the right path for both countries to focus on each other," said Clinton and added: "I have said several times that we can't change the history that we have inherited. We can try to have a better future together." According to Clinton, the historical commission is in the process of creation.
