Hurriyet, Turkey
Oct 10 2007
President Abdullah Gul has sent US President George W. Bush a letter
warning of the repercussions from the possible passage of the so-called
Armenian genocide bill in the US Congress.
A statement issued by the Presidential Press Center in Ankara noted
that Gul's letter to Bush focused on the likely ruptures that would
occur in Turkish-US relations if the US Congress were to approve
the bill regarding allegations made by the Armenians that a genocide
occured in Turkey around 1915. While Gul reportedly thanked Bush for
his efforts in regards to blocking the passage of the bill up until
now, the President also touched on the "serious problems" which would
emerge if the bill were to be approved.
