"Turkey follows with regret the efforts of the Armenian lobbies
seeking to win votes to exploit political developments in the United
States," Turkish Foreign Affairs spokesman Namik Tan told a weekly
news conference in Ankara on Wednesday.
Asked to comment on a bill on the Armenian Genocide, claimed to be
discussed at US Congress and on the recent statements of the Armenian
executives, Tan said, "We have observed that there were expectations
of the Armenian circles about adoption of so-called Armenian Genocide
after the elections held in the United States in November."
Tan said relations between Turkey and the United States were "multi
dimensional" and "strategic," and indicated that the relations included
comprehensive topics.
"The United States has been pursuing a commonsensical approach so
far. We believe that US administration will maintain the relations
with the same understanding. Relations between Turkey and the United
States have importance beyond this small expectations," he added.
