    Turks won the Genocide Case Against Armenians in the US


    Saturday, 25 July 2009

    Turkish associations to which, Turkish President Abdullah G?Ã?¼l gave
    responsibility in order to increase the trade volume, succeeded to
    protect Turkey's 2 Billion $ worth export to California. Paul
    Krekorian, Member of the California State Assembly, introduced a bill
    which based on the Armenian claims, to the State Assembly in order to
    block the trading between Turkish companies and California companies.

    First Turkish associations succeed on Assignment Committee to hold the
    bill and they also prevented the discussion of bill in the General
    Assembly. Finally they applied to the court in order to abolish the
    bill on grounds of contradiction to constitution and they won the
    case.

    Paul Krekorian tried to convince the Assembly that the bill was
    intended to prevent California from doing business with companies that
    "do business with genocidal regimes." But, Turkish American Legal
    Defense Fund (TALDF) which takes support from associations like
    Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA), Turkish-American
    Business Association (TABA) won the case against the Armenian
    claims. As a result of that Assembly Bill (AB) 961 has been
    effectively held in the CA Assembly Appropriations Committee by
    Chairman Kevin De Leon.

    U?Ã??Å?¸ur Terzioglu, Board Chairman of TABA said "California
    constitutes nearly %30 percent of whole Turkish- American trade
    volume. Judge decided that no one can intervene trading issues like
    that. We want peace between Turkey and Armenia."

    After the judgment Turkish companies which export goods to California
    are relieved.
