ANCA UNMASKED TURKISH SOURCES' CURRENT LIE
DeFacto Agency, Armenia
April 5 2007
Major U.S. companies continue to distance themselves from two corporate
coalitions that are publicly backing the Turkish government's
campaign against the Armenian Genocide Resolution, according to
documents released by the Armenian National Committee of America
(ANCA) yesterday.
The American Turkish Council (ATC) and the American Business Forum in
Turkey (ABFT), both coalitions claiming to represent U.S. corporations
doing business in Turkey, have each publicly - and aggressively -
opposed the adoption of legislation recognizing the Armenian Genocide
by the Congress (H.Res.106/S.Res.106.).
In response to these efforts, the ANCA sent formal letters last
month to each member of the two coalitions, requesting that they
clarify their position on the Armenian Genocide Resolution. To date,
the ANCA has received written confirmation from a number of these
companies that they are not opposed to the adoption of the Armenian
Genocide Resolution. Among these are several major multinationals,
such as Microsoft, Xerox, American Express, Altria, Johnson & Johnson,
FedEx, and Cargill.
