YEREVAN, OCTOBER 5, NOYAN TAPAN. The House of Representatives of
U.S. Congress is very likely to adopt Resolution 106 on the Armenian
Genocide. This opinion was expressed by Hakob Chakrian, the political
commentator of the Daily Azg, at the press conference held on October
5, which concerned the introduction of the above-mentioned resolution
in Congress on October 10. At the same time, he expressed conviction
that the Senate will be against that document concerning the genocide.
According to Hakob Chakrian, the potential of Turkey , which is
directed at the denial of the fact of the Armenian Genocide, has become
weaker and that circumstance is aleady reflected in the speeches of
certain Turkish officials. Thus, Abdullah Gul, the current President
of Turkey and former Minister of Foreign Affairs, mentioned in one of
his speeches, that the issue of the genocide should be inserted into
the main list of the most important problems of Turkey during the
forthcoming ten years: by the way, the issue of the genocide hinders
the development of normal relations between Turkey and third countries.
Hakob Chakrian also mentioned that having a criticizing attitude
towards the U.S. policy with regard to the recognition of the Armenian
Genocide, Armenians, however, should always remember that the United
States of America is the only country, the President of which sends
his message to the U.S. Armenian community on April 24 every year.
Armen Ayvazian, the Director of Ararat strategic center, mentioned that
in difference to a number of other documents concerning the recognition
of the genocide, Resolution 106 includes all those important points,
which concern the whole period of the commitment of the genocide:
1915-23. It is also mentioned in the document that the genocide was
committed in the historical land of Armenians and not in the Ottoman
Empire, which as well is an important point of positive significance
for Armenians, to name but a few.
