Long live Mr. Biden and long live the United states of America, Thank you for giving us the honor to honor you in our Armenian quarter in Jerusalem.
We Armenian are so proud of Mr. Biden. Unlike previous US presidents, he made a history by recognizing the Armenian genocide. So called Trump Armenians, should be ashamed of themselves.
