Kim Kardashian praised President Joe Biden for formally recognizing the massacre of hundreds of thousands of Armenians under the Ottoman Empire in the early 20th century as “genocide.”
“After more than a century of fighting for truth and acknowledgment, today the Armenian people received the recognition we have all been hoping and praying for, with President Biden declaring the massacre of 1.5 million Armenians in 1915 a genocide,” Kardashian wrote in a post on Instagram.
Kardashian, whose paternal great-great-grandparents fled Armenia for the U.S. in the early 1900s, said she’s “so proud” of her heritage. She said she’s “grateful” to Biden for granting “every Armenian this day, and this truth.”
“Although nothing will ever bring back the Armenians who were murdered, I hope that their families will now feel a sense of peace,” wrote Kardashian, a billionaire entrepreneur, and reality TV star.
“Thank you, President Biden, for your courage to speak the truths others chose not to,” she added.
