April 22, 1994 — Armenian Remembrance Day
On this solemn day, I join Armenians from around the world in remembering
the victims of the 1915 massacres in the Ottoman Empire. The effects of that
tragedy have profoundly touched all of us, and together we mourn the
terrible loss of so many innocent lives.
Yet even in the face of this devastating event, the rich and vibrant
Armenian culture has continued to thrive. Demonstrating remarkable
resilience and courage, Armenian Americans have made enormous contributions
to our development and success as a country. Now, with the creation of a new
and independent Armenia under President Ter-Petrosyan's leadership, the
Armenian people are bringing the same determination to creating a democracy
and a modern economy in their native land. Recalling the brave spirit of
those who died in the violence of 1915, these important efforts honor their
lasting legacy.
As we rededicate ourselves to building an Armenia of great prosperity and
lasting peace, I extend best wishes to all for a meaningful observance.
Bill Clinton
