    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey will take action in case the Armenian
    Genocide resolution passes in the U.S. House of Representatives, said
    Rakib Kilic, the assistant chairman of the Turkish police general
    directorate's department on smuggling and organized crime.

    "We are hopeful that the resolution will be voted down. Otherwise,
    Turkey will take action," he said, Trend news agency reports.

    October 10, with a vote 27 to 21 the U.S. House Committee on Foreign
    Affairs adopted the Armenian Genocide Resolution, H.Res.106, which
    was introduced by Representative Adam Schiff January 30, 2007. The
    vote in the full House has not been scheduled yet.

    Meanwhile, several Congressmen recalled their signatures under pressure
    of the Turkish lobby.

    Turkey has numerously "warned" the U.S. that adoption of the resolution
    will damage bilateral relations.
