Trutube TV’s 60 Minutes program aired a segment on the Armenian Genocide, with an American writer and historian Peter Balakian and the daughter of a killed Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrank Dink invited as guests.

The program host and Balakian travelled the desert of Deir-ez-Zor, the scene of tragedy. The program further dwelled on the history of the Genocide and the U.S. response to the atrocities, detailing a diplomatic correspondence between the consuls and ambassador Morgentau.

U.S. leader Barack Obama’s pledge to recognize the Genocide, only to go back on his words after assuming presidency was also discussed along with Armenian-Turkish Protocols, Incirlik Air Base and demands of American Armenians to recognize the Genocide.
