The Turkish parliamentarians' group submitted a report to Prime
Minister Receb Tayyib Erdogan who returned from U.S. visit concerning
threat of recognizing "Armenian genocide" in U.S., the Turkish Huriyyet
newspaper reported.
The report says that the Armenian lobbyists are too close to get
support of Jews in U.S. and its Congress to recognize "genocide".
Official Yerevan and numerous Armenian diaspora organizations have
been seeking to achieve other countries and parliaments to recognize
"Armenian genocide" and urge Turkey to admit annihilating 1.5 million
ethnic Armenians. Turkey denies these accusations and has severed
diplomatic relations and blockaded borders with Armenia which is an
important transport artery for Yerevan.
