    Former U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Morton Abramowitz is reported to have
    said that the current Genocide resolution scheduled for a gearing in
    the U.S. Congress is "the most urgent issue" in Turkish-U.S relations.

    Ambassador Abramowitz, who served in Ankara from 1989-1991, said
    that the resolution might eventually be adopted if President Barack
    Obama doesn't intervene in the process. The Anatolia News Agency says
    Ambassador Abramowitz made the remark at a meeting organized by the
    Istanbul Center and Georgia Tech's Sam Nunn School of International
    Affairs held in Atlanta on Sunday.

    Abramowitz also suggested that the ongoing tension between Israel and
    Turkey had sparked anger against Turkey amongst the Jewish lobby in
    the US, which has traditionally been pro-Turkey.
