TURKEY MUST NOT BE ACCUSED OF UNCONFIRMED CRIME: TURKISH MP
TREND

The Turkish opposition Nationalist Movement Party (NMP) said it is
not convincing that U.S. President Barack Obama will sound a genocide
expression at the congress on April 24.
"Turkey must not be accused of the unconfirmed crime which it did not
commit," Turkish Parliamentarian from the NMP Shenol Bal told Trend
News in a telephone conversation from Ankara on April 24.
Every year on April 24 Armenians mark anniversary of the so-called
"genocide", falsifying historical facts, making baseless claims
against Ankara. In 2006, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
proposed to Armenian President to create a joint commission. However,
the Armenian side did not accept the proposal saying that it did not
have a doubt on interpretation of the event.
Bal believes the U.S. president has not yet changed his opinion on
"alleged genocide" issue.
"Obama's opinion on "genocide" issue is known, but despite this,
it is not convincing that a genocide expression will be sounded at
the congress. I think U.S. will not take such a step," Bal said.
