llhan Omar votes 'present' on bill condemning Armenian genocide
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., on Tuesday refused to support a congressional
resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide, saying it was important first
to condemn the preceding "mass slaughter" of "hundreds of millions of
indigenous people," as well as the "transatlantic slave trade."
Omar, in a statement explaining her vote of "present" on the resolution,
also seemingly suggested that the century-old mass killings of Armenians by
Ottoman Turks may not have occurred at all. She asserted that "
accountability and recognition of genocide should not be used as a cudgel in
a political fight" but should instead "be done based on academic consensus
outside the push and pull of geopolitics." |
