How did Turkey assume a position of such power that it is able to veto acknowledgement of historical fact?
Turkey is the violent prone bully that nobody want to rile. They have a powerful military, nukes, large land mass in a strategic location, and an oil pipeline with a planned connection to Europe. They also have a long vicious Muslim history, which makes them an unstable ally. Armenia is just a little pea-pop of a country, shut out by its neighbors (closed border with Turkey), with little to offer. No American president of either party has had the will to stand up to the threats of Turkey. Now with radical islamists running rampant, there is even less willingness to poke the snake.

When did Turkey get nukes?
