"The Honorable George W. Bush President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20500
April 22, 2005
Dear Mr. President :
I am writing to you on behalf of the Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA), a non-profit, non-partisan association that includes 54 Turkish American organizations nationwide. ATAA?s mission is to educate the public regarding Turkey and US-Turkish relations and to coordinate grassroots activities on issues of importance to the Turkish American Community. I would like to thank you for your Administration�s continuous support for the US-Turkish partnership and for your steadfast resistance to the pressure exerted by certain groups wishing to undermine the long-standing friendship between the people of the United States and Turkey. We, the Turkish Americans, appreciate you maintaining impartiality on the sensitive historical issue of the WWI Ottoman Tragedy and would like to ask that, this year, in your annual April 24th address, you remember all those who perished due to armed revolts, inter-communal fighting, relocation, disease, and malnutrition in the Ottoman Empire before and during WWI."
