U.S. were going to grant $500 000 to Dennis Hastert, the Speaker of
the U.S. House of Representative for preventing the discussion of the
Armenian Genocide Resolution in the Congress, a FBI agent stated. As
reported by U.S. media Sybil Edmonds, who was working as a FBI
translator will publish in Vanity Fair September edition the
translations of the records proving that Turkish organizations and
Turkish Consulate in Chicago were going to allocate $500 000 for
Hastert's election campaign. The collection of funds was to be
carried out by way of small donations to avoid naming the real
donator. The article to be published questions Hastert's receiving
the sum. However some U.S. media verify that during the election
campaign a great number of minor donations not demanding personal
identification were made. In 2000 Mr. Hastert spoke out for the
discussion of the Armenian Genocide resolution. However President
Clinton called the Speaker and asked to recall the resolution
motivating the request by the possible hardships in U.S. foreign
relations. Afterwards Mr. Hastert recalled the resolution, RFE/RL
