Armenska dijaspora u Sjedinjenim Državama također je bila nezadovoljna predsjednikovom izjavom i kritizirala ga zbog toga što nije ispunio svoje predizborno obećanje o priznavanju armenskog genocida.
The Armenian diaspora in the United States was also unhappy with the president's statement and criticised him for failing to make good on his pre-election promise to recognise the Armenian genocide.
