allegations
Ankara, 26 January: Levent Bilman, spokesman of the Turkish MFA
[Ministry of Foreign Affairs] said Turkey felt regret over recent
statements of the US presidential candidates supporting the Armenian
allegations regarding the incidents of 1915.
The press release issued by Bilman said, "The attempts to cast a
shadow over our history in the name of competition among candidates
within a political party, deeply hurts the Turkish nation. We invite
the US presidential candidate nominees to act responsibly in regards
