    on recognizing Armenian Genocide in appropriate commissions could not
    provide discussion and voting", Shiffer noted adding that the
    agreement reached the day before will give an opportunity to hold
    discussion and voting on the draft. The source notes that the last
    voting in committee took place 5 years ago. "The Resolution will
    present the history of Armenian Genocide. It will be noted there that
    the first Genocide of the last century assassinated more than 1.5 mln
    Armenians was planned beforehand. The Resolution will note that the
    US Congress recognizes Armenian Genocide", congressman noted.

    chairman on foreign affairs was given a right to present the
