On January 20, 2004, the British Ambassador to Armenia, Mrs. Thorda Abbott-Watt, during a press conference marking the first anniversary of her diplomatic posting in Armenia, referring to the events of 1915, stated that although the British Government condemned the massacres as an atrocity at that time, the evidence was not sufficiently unequivocal that what took place could be categorized as genocide under the 1948 United Nations Convention on Genocide and that the debate on this issue continues among historians and lawyers.
