    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ If the U.S. Congress recognized massacre of Armenians
    in Ottoman Empire in 1915 as genocide, it will damage the U.S.-Turkey
    relations and ensure continuation of Armenia's blockade, said Mehmet
    Dulger, a member of the Turkish National Assembly and Chairman of
    the Foreign Affairs Committee, reports Reuters. "The economy of the
    region is awakening while Armenia is staying aside," the deputy said
    adding that an oil pipeline, gas pipeline and abuilding railroad
    bypass Armenia.

    Despite the efforts of the Turkish side targeted against the adoption
    of the Armenian Genocide resolution Dulger is pessimistic about
    the issue. He thinks that resolution will be passed thanks to the
    support of Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives,
    reports RFE/RL.
