For more than a century the U.S. has not formally recognized the killing
of more than a million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire during WWI as
genocide. Over the weekend, that changed. POLITICO’s Charlie Mahtesian
explains what it means for Armenian Americans. Plus, the U.S. pledges
aid to India amid a Covid surge. And a group of Senators Biden to push
for Medicare expansion.
Charlie Mahtesian is the senior politics editor for POLITICO.
Jeremy Siegel is a host for POLITICO Dispatch.
Irene Noguchi is the executive producer of POLITICO audio.
Jenny Ament is the senior producer of POLITICO audio.
