    Turkey's potential directed at denting the Armenian Genocide has died out
    05.10.2007 16:42

    There is great possibility that the US House of Representatives will
    adopt the Armenian Genocide Resolution (H. Res. 106), political
    commentator of Azg daily Hakob Chakryan told a press conference
    dedicated to the consideration of the above-mentioned resolution in
    the Congress on October 10. At the same time he expressed confidence
    that the Senate will oppose the document on the Armenian Genocide.

    According to Hakob Chakryan, Turkey's potential directed at denting
    the Armenian Genocide has died out, and this fact finds reflections
    in the speeches of many Turkish officials. Thus, Turkey's current
    President, ex-Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul noted in one of his
    speeches that the genocide question must be included in the list of
    most important issues of Turkey within coming 10 years. Indeed, the
    genocide issue is an obstacle for developing normal relations between
    Turley and third countries.

    Hakob Chakryan noted also that criticizing the US policy on
    recognition of the Armenian Genocide, Armenians must always remember
    that the US is the only country, the President of which addresses the
    Armenian community on April 24 every year.

    Director of the Ararat strategic research centre Armen Ayvazyan
    mentioned that unlike many other documents on recognition of the
    Armenian Genocide, H. Res. 106 embraces all important points related
    to the whole period of genocide perpetration from 1915 to 1923. It's
    noted in the document that the genocide was carried out ion the
    historic land of Armenians and not the Ottoman Empire, which is also
    a positive point for Armenians.
