    Turkish MPs to try to hinder adoption of Armenian Genocide resolution
    22.02.2007 16:47 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Three separate delegations of
    Turkish parliamentarians are going to depart for
    Washington in order to urge their American colleagues
    not to adopt the Armenian Genocide resolution.
    Delegations, which include representatives from ruling
    and opposition parties, will visit the U.S.A. at the
    end of February and beginning of March, since
    discussions on the resolution in the U.S. House of
    Representatives are scheduled for April. During his
    last visit to the United States Turkish Foreign
    Minister Abdullah Gul called the Congress not to adopt
    the resolution, otherwise, in his words, the
    American-Turkish relations can be exposed to serious
    risk. It is also worth mentioning that this year
    adoption of Armenian Genocide resolution is quite
    possible, since Democrats, who make majority in the
    Congress, are in favor of the document, RFE RL
    reports.
