Turkey, of course, refuses to recognise the Armenian genocide.

Israel, for its part, refuses to recognise the Armenian genocide, and Shimon Peres has gone so far to say that it never happened:-

For its part, the United States has always refused to recognise the Armenian genocide as well, in no small part due to the concerted work of both Turkish and Jewish groups within the United States.

On the other hand, the Armenian genocide has been recognised by no less than the vice-president of Iran:-

Its a good job that Shimon Peres only does callow, footsucking interviews with wall-eyed idiots like Wolf Blitzer, or else he might be in danger of someone pointing out the extravagance of his hypocrisy, given his pontificating about Iran failing to properly recognise the holocaust.
