Turks and Armenians were not satisfied with Obama.

Armenian diaspora in the United States and the Turkish Government expressed their displeasure at the statement Barack Obama on the occasion of the anniversary of mass extermination of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915.
In a statement, U.S. President never used the word "genocide" and preferred to talk about the mass killings as a "great distress" and "one of the most horrific events of XX century". In this regard, the Armenian Council of America has accused Obama of non-compliance with election promises. Chairman Vazgen Hodanyan said that the U.S. leader succumbed to threats from Turkey to refuse to establish relations with Armenia, the Panarmenian.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkey, in turn, called some inappropriate words Obama and his interpretation of the events of 1915. In particular, Turkey has remained unhappy that the U.S. president did not mention the Turks who were killed in clashes with Armenians, informs AFP.
As a result of repression in the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of XX century, killed about 1.5 million Armenians. Turkey argues that the victims of ethnic conflicts in that period have also been hundreds of thousands of Turks. The interpretation of the events of 1915 remains the key obstacle to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
