=World Response to the Armenian Genocide=
 * US Diplomatic representatives and Armenian missionaries were the first to send news to the outside world about the upcoming genocide.


 * The international community condemned the genocide.


 * May 1915, Great Britain, France, and Russia advise the Young Turk leaders that they would be held responsible for this crime.


 * At the end of the war, allied victors demanded that the Ottoman Government prosecute the Young Turks accused of wartime crimes.


 * Relief efforts were also made to help the "starving Armenians".


 * However, NO STRONG actions were taken against the Ottoman Empire to salvage the Armenian people from their close extinction and no steps were taken to make restitution to the Armenians for their human and material losses.

The government was preoccupied with World War 1 to focus on this genocide that had occurred. Some Armenians were rescued after the Genocide came to an end but the overall response was too little too late. The government did not create conditions after to prevent future massacres. After the genocide the government gave no assistance to surviving Armenians to ease recovery.
 * The abscence of Justice and Protection in the Post-War Period
