WASHINGTON, MAY 22, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Founder of Future
Without Terrorism research center, lawyer Ken Ballen stated that
adoption of the resolution on Armenian Genocide in U.S. Congress will
damage both efforts of reconciliation between Turkey and Armenia and
the interests of U.S.
During one of discussions organized in U.S. Congress Ken Ballen
presented the results of sociological surveys held in Turkey, according
to which the majority of the respondents is against adoption of the
resolution on Armenian Genocide in Congress. The participants of the
survey spoke for Turkey's stopping assistance provided to U.S. during
Iraqi operations in case of resolution's adoption. "If that bill is
adopted by the Congress, the Turks' look at Armenians will scowl,"
Ballen said adding that in this case the majority of Turks will
boycott goods of American production.
To recap, the sociological survey was held from January 27 to February
8, 2007, by Future Without Terrorism research center and with the
assistance of Clinton Global Initiative. 1021 persons having turned
18 were interrogated during the survey.
