Obama Statement on Armenian Remembrance Day

President Barack Obama on Friday refrained from branding the massacre of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians in Turkey a "genocide," breaking a campaign promise while contending his views about the 20th century slaughter had not changed.Marking the grim anniversary of the start of the killings, the president referred to them as "one of the great atrocities of the 20th century."
