Turkish President Erdogan calls on President Biden to reverse calling mass killings of Armenians a genocide.

"If you say genocide, then you need to look at yourselves in the mirror and make an evaluation. The Native Americans, I don't even need to mention them, what happened is clear," he said, in reference to the treatment of Native Americans by European settlers."While all these truths are out there, you cannot pin the genocide accusation on the Turkish people."

Turkey supported Baku in the conflict last year, in which Azeri forces seized swaths of lands in the Nagorno-Karabakh region. Biden's statement came at a time when Ankara and Washington have been struggling to repair ties, strained when Turkey purchased Russian defense systems resulting in U.S. sanctions; policy differences in Syria; and legal matters.Erdogan said he expected to"open the door for a new period" in ties and discuss all disputes with Biden at a NATO summit in June, but warned that ties would deteriorate further unless the allies can compartmentalize issues.

"We now need to put aside our disagreements and look at what steps we can take from now on, otherwise we will have no choice but to do what is required by the level our ties have fallen to on April 24," he said.

Daddy , don’t say that, I beg you.

What should it be called?

I wonder what he wants to call the mass killings of millions

Sorry... I don’t do DELUSIONAL!

Too late. We asked for him not to purchase Russian S-400s but did. We just told it like it is and now he's big mad.

I'm loving it... Americans talking about human rights and 'the truth of history'.... Muahahaha 😂😂😂

🇹🇷👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

We don’t need turkey. Turkey desperately need the US. The Armenian genocide drove millions of ethnic Armenians to American shores. . . . . And we vote

Nope.

Will it bring all of those people back to life?

Why? The truth is the truth.

True is True..... Hai sictir Erdogan.

Crack is wack

Say It ain't so Joe

Not going to happen.

Yeah...no.

I guess the truth hurts too much then, let's hope Biden doesn't reverse it, it happened so Erdogan & the Turks who almost certainly will respond to this tweet with some nonsense just have to deal with it .

Dictators gonna dictate

Pfft.

Tell sleepy to mind his own business

Or what will happen cup cake ?

Instead of saying what happened in the past does not represeant the modern Turkey ,Erdogan is bitching about mass killing different from genocide 🙄

Alternative Headline: Curd murderer bitches about Biden's decision to recognize The Armenian Genocide.

The fuck? What else are we supposed to call it, Eragon? A tiny massacre? Gtfoh

Na it was a genocide fuck him .

this is why we need more women in charge of the world and especially diplomacy, foreign and demostic.

بوس ايد بايدن. معلش انت هتبكي خليك راجل عيب عليك ده انت خليفة المثليين

Biden will not do that.

Why is Turkey all triggered by something an empire that collapsed a century ago did?

No

Remember when Erdogan was in US meeting with Trump and his goons attacked protesters while he watched and nothing every happened to them, they were allowed to fly off So .. Erdogan -- get used to it, your 'friend in crime' is out of office now.

what's the difference between mass killing and genocide ?

How about, nah.

Ok Sleepy....now what?

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Right. Biden does not care. This small country is a midget compared to Giant US. Erdogan's Human rights record is one of the worst. Threats? What a joke.

We don’t have more important issues for joe to handle? And our past is so squeaky clean right🤦

And we haven't even brought up the slaughtering of the Kurds yet. Tell us a little more about your relationship with Trump.

He said what he meant and he meant what he said. Period

Why don’t you call Trump and ask him if they drank bleach it would help

No Biden needs to hold his ground

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, acts like a duck....it’s a duck. And, I might add, the US has had it’s genocide with Native Americans as well. We should not deny or forget that.

Cher responds to Biden calling mass killing of Armenians a genocideOn Saturday, President Joe Biden acknowledged the killing of more than a million Armenians by Ottoman Turks more than a century ago as genocide. Oh thank God. This is the news the world has been waiting for. A century from now, a President will declare trump's response to the pandemic as genocide... as well they should. TheFaymeReport I think this would be a good time to admit the Irish famine was actually English genocide on the Irish people.

Turkish President Erdogan calls for history commission after Biden 'genocide' statementJoe Biden on Saturday became the first American president to officially recognize the Ottoman Empire's World War I-era mass killings of Armenians as 'genocide.' The historians are already pretty clear on this. 'I'm the first U.S. President to kill over half a million Americans within a single year by telling everyone that a deadly virus was just a hoax, but do I get any of the credit or recognition that I deserve for making such incredible history?...' Erdogan isn’t happy.
