    ANKARA EXPECTS US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TO REJECT RESOLUTION ON INCIDENTS OF 1915

    ANKARA - Spokesman for the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA),
    Burak Ozugergin, said Monday Turkey expected the Foreign Relations
    Committee of the United States House of Representatives to reject
    a resolution on the incidents of 1915 so that "such a resolution
    does not hurt Turkish-U.S. relations and harm efforts to normalize
    relations between Turkey and Armenia".

    In response to a question, Ozugergin said that Turkey regretted House
    Resolution 252 that supported baseless allegations of "genocide"
    and that would be discussed by the Committee of the U.S. House of
    Representatives on March 4.

    We have conveyed our concern and sorrow to various U.S. dignitaries,
    Ozugergin noted.

    We would like to believe that members of the Foreign Relations
    Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives are aware of the
    fact that the adoption of such a resolution would be a blow to not
    only Turkish-U.S. relations but also efforts to facilitate peace and
    stability in the Southern Caucasus, Ozugergin underlined.

    We want to believe that members of the Foreign Relations Committee
    of the U.S. House of Representatives will act with a sense of
    responsibility, Ozugergin also said.
