USA - WAY TO ADOPTION OF H.RES. 106
Law S.888 on bringing to trial persons involved in genocidal actions, adopted December 10-15 by the Representatives Chamber of the US Congress, is extremely important for punishing all those people who committed genocide and took refuge in the United States, "Armenian Mirror Spectator" reports the statement by the Armenian Assembly of America.
According to the old law, replaced by S.888, only the crimes committed on the territory of the USA and/or by a citizen of the USA could be qualified as genocide. The new law empowers the law enforcement structures to persecute all foreigners who had committed or had been engaged in crimes qualified as genocide and had entered the United States.
In this way we simply prevent our country from being used as means of avoiding responsibility, says president of Representatives Chamber juristic commission John Conyers.
We are proud of supporting Conyers and being agree with him that this is not the end. The next step shall be the long-expected adoption of H.Res. 106, which is to put an end to all kinds of negationism, states director executive of the Armenian Assembly of America Bryan Ardouni.
