Azerbaijani, Turkish and Jewish diaspora will jointly prevent Armenian
lobby's activity on recognition of alleged `genocide' in U.S.
`The Azerbaijani diaspora is not inactive before the Armenian lobby in
U.S. We assemble with the Turkish and Jewish diaspora and specify
activity directions every day. We will meet with congressmen in
Washington next week,' U.S.-Azerbaijan Society Chairman Tomris Azeri
told Trend News in a telephone conversation from New York on Feb. 14.
The Armenian lobby strengthened its efforts on recognition of
`genocide' after Barack Obama's coming to power in U.S. Armenia and
Armenian lobby claim that modern Turkey's precursor the Ottoman Empire
committed `genocide' against Armenians in 1915.
Early February, the U.S.-Armenian National Committee urged citizens of
Armenian origin to send a letter to Barack Obama and congressmen and
impose pressure on them accept `genocide', the Turkish Haber 7 News
Agency reported.
Azeri said that the Jewish committees will support the Azerbaijani and
Turkish diasporas to prevent Armenians' activity on recognition of
alleged `Armenian genocide'. `Jews know very well who our enemies
are,' he said.
If `Armenian genocide' is discussed at the U.S. Congress, it will not
be accepted, Azeri said.
