    OUR COMMENTARY

    DeFacto Agency, Armenia
    Feb 6 2007

    "The adoption of draft law on Armenian Genocide in the U. S. Congress
    may seriously harm the U.S. - Turkey relations", Deputy Assistant
    Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, U. S. Co-Chair
    of the OSCE Minks group Matthew Bryza stated, APA reports.

    He noted in case the Congress passed that bill, the relations between
    the two countries could be harmed. Bryza also stated the White House
    Administration "began to work" with the congressmen to prevent the
    adoption of the bill. According to Matthew Bryza, the White House is
    doing its best to prevent the Armenian genocide bill from recognition.

    DE FACTO IAA COMMENT

    There can be only two explanations to this: either APA again spreads,
    to say the least of it, unreliable information, or Matthew Bryza
    again mixes "the policy of pipelines" with democracy and fundamental
    human rights.

    The thing is that the adoption of the draft law on Armenian Genocide in
    the U. S. Congress, Senate or executive bodies not only cannot hamper
    the U.S. - Turkey relations, but, on the contrary, it will help to make
    them civilized. Trying to make Ankara stretch some political points,
    Washington threats Turkey with the bill's recognition, using it like
    the sword of Damocles. However, if the draft law is really adopted,
    Turkey will no longer be under moral pressure, which will allow the
    country to make political decisions for its own benefit.

    However, in case Bryza really made the statement, one should consider
    the person's right to be the Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk group. Is
    the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, which has built its statehood on the
    legal fundament, really in need of such a mediator?
