Let us set an example for the world to follow. Let us ratify the Genocide Convention now. Mr. President. I believe the opposition to the Genocide Convention in its current form demonstrates extraordinary insensitivity to the many American citizens who came here following the Armenian genocide. to those who once were refugees from or had relatives killed in Hitlers death camps. to those immigrants from Southeast Asia who fled from the Khmer Rouge. Those who object to the treaty should recognize that their concerns are not accepted by the State Departmert. by the President of the United States. or by such close U.S. allies as Canada. France.
