White House deletes JD Vance’s social media post referring to Armenian genocide
AI Summary
The White House deleted a social media post by Vice President JD Vance that referred to the Armenian genocide during his visit to Armenia. The post, made on Vance's official X account, honored "the victims of the Armenian genocide" at a memorial. A Vance aide attributed the post to staff error, marking the second instance of the administration citing staff error for controversial social media content recently. During the trip, Vance avoided using the term "genocide," instead describing the events as a "terrible thing." The US government had previously avoided the term to avoid alienating Turkey, but President Biden formally recognized the Armenian genocide in 2021. The Trump administration has since reverted to the previous stance.
