WikiLeaks: U.S. recognition of Armenian Genocide will cause political
unrest in Turkey
June 16, 2011 | 01:14
Resolution on Armenian Genocide will again be introduced to U.S.
Congress on Tuesday. Its international political implications are
manifested in secret dispatches of U.S. State Department, reports
American The Republic: Columbus Indiana.
Resolution is called to ensure that the House of Representatives has
officially applied the term "Genocide" to mass killings of Armenians
in 1915-1923 in Ottoman Turkey. Identical or similar Genocide
resolutions could not pass the House over past 16 years.
Although resolutions continuously fail, they do cause diplomatic
chatter and State Department dispatches released by WikiLeaks are
perfect proof of this.
"Any U.S. determination of 1915 events as "Genocide" will cause
political storm in Turkey and will affect the bilateral relations with
devastating consequences for political, military and commercial
aspects,” warned the State Department telegram sent from Ankara, on
January 26, 2010.
"The annual Turkish request to Israel to help in blocking the bill on
the Armenian Genocide in Congress," the secret telegram from Tel Aviv,
sent on October 13, 2009, reads.
Other State Department dispatches reveal that cooperation of Turkish
military and intelligence forces with the U.S. military economy
temporarily slowed in response to previous discussions of the Genocide
resolution in the Congress.
