RFK, Jr: “I will do everything in my power to peacefully restore Armenian sovereignty of Artsakh”

U.S. Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. once again pledged that his administration would leverage U.S. power to restore Armenian sovereignty over Artsakh and reunify Armenian lands during a January 8th reception hosted by Armenian community leaders and philanthropists Mike and Evelina Sarian in Glendale, CA.
The ANCA is sharing the full video of RFK Jr.'s remarks, provided by Alpha News Armenian Network, here.
“One of the things that I won't forget as President of the United States is the struggle of Armenians for sovereignty, for dignity, for their right to reunify their country, including Artsakh, which has been since 200 BC, has been the birthplace of the Armenian people,” stated RFK, Jr. “And the fact that the world didn't notice this rich ethnic cleansing - this genocide - is really striking to me. But it's something that I intend to talk about and to continue talking about use my power as President of the United States, to leverage the cooperation of nations within that region, to do everything I can to peacefully reunite Armenia.”
ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian welcomed the candidate’s statement and stressed the importance of elevating Artsakh’s genocidal plight and Turkey/Azerbaijan’s existential threat to Armenian survival to the presidential stage. “RFK Jr’s principled position meaningfully elevates the place of Armenian issues upon the national electoral stage - a potent, potentially election altering, challenge to Joe Biden and Donald Trump - both guilty of arming genocidal Azerbaijan and abandoning democratic Artsakh,” stated Hamparian. “His appeal to nearly two million Armenian Americans takes place in the context of our community’s profound dissatisfaction - decades in the making - with the relentless lies and anti-Armenian betrayals of the foreign policy establishments of Democratic and Republican administrations,” continued Hamparian. These statements show “there is a growing appreciation among top electoral strategists for both the political potency of Armenian issues and the potentially pivotal role of Armenian American votes in a closely contested 2024 presidential race,” concluded Hamparian.

UNITY is the answer for all of our ills. No more divisive "I'm right, you're wrong". Nothing will get done without unity. RFK,Jr 2024

[@cynthiawadeson8843]

The thing is--we Don't share the same goals or methods to achieve those goals so how to achieve unity? Imo the only thing standing between subjugation of one group or the other is our Constitution and "rule of law" both of which are eroded every day. So it's not looking good for the USA imo. I think the next election will be re-birth or destruction of USA as we know it. Sorry for the pessimism --wish I could see it differently.

No one can describe RFK Jr. Better than he can in his own voice. He has given this 73 year old hope for our society again. Please volunteer a few minutes of your time to share his message with others. Blessings to all.

21:11 This should have gotten huge applause. What is occurring in East P. is an unimaginablly horrific nightmare. The whole region doused in deadly toxins and pretty much left to die. They deserve massive compensation including relocation to a safe new home and Medicare coverage for life. And we should demand accountability for the corporate-state corruption that led to this disaster and be concerned that this hell unleashed in East P. is merely a more dramatic case of a slow but constant poisoning from toxic pollutants that we are exposed to no matter where we live. Bobby should mention this disaster and his involvement in it more often as a real world example of him fighting the system on behalf of Americans.

It is established that the region is Azerbaijani territory according to both the UN agreements and the agreements on the division of the USSR. Armenia had occupied the region according to the international community, and this action ceased 2 years ago. Even Armenians have accepted this situation. Of course, thousands of Karabakh people have now been forcibly expelled from the region. It is impossible to return this situation peacefully. Right now, as a Turk of Turkey, my wish is for Turks to start commercial relations with Armenia. ı believe they have same wish. The concerns of the Diaspora Armenians and the concerns of the people of the region are very different.

I admire his stance for Armenians… What about the children of Gaza???

[@GotWag]

He's repeatedly expressed compassion for the kids/people of Gaza. However, he does not support Hamas or Hezbollah. My guess is that he already knows Israel isn't going to stop (as Bibi has repeatedly said), and/or perhaps he believes Hamas must be eliminated for the Palestinians to have any real life or hope.
