Abstract

Armenian Genocide recognition has become one of the greatest issues, hence in every scientific field there are being carried out various studies. The article touches upon the lingo-semantic analyses of the USA official standpoint on the Armenian genocide.

The theory provided here serves as a key to reveal the meaning of discourse, which comes to be that of maneuvering in our study. So, the US politicians do maneuver and do avoid talking about the events in a simple way. We understand their thoughts through context and logical-semantic structure.
