    US CONGRESSMAN CALLS ON HIS COLLEAGUES TO PROTECT US-TURKISH RELATIONS

    Azerbaijan

    Washington-APA. US Republican Congressman Bill Shuster emphasized the
    importance of protection and development of US-Turkish relations in
    his address to the House members.

    According to APA, Bill Shuster said Turkey played important role in
    the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq and fully supported the
    US-led operation in Afghanistan. Shuster's address related to the
    Armenian lobby's attempt to include the draft resolution on the false
    "Armenian genocide" in the agenda of the US Congress.

    Member of the House of Representatives Adam Schiff promised at his
    meeting with 75 members of the Armenian National Committee of America
    to include the draft resolution in agenda. He said Turkish lobby put
    all efforts to prevent it. "I hope the US Congress will adopt the draft
    resolution on the "genocide of Armenians in Ottoman Empire during
    the World War I" and President Obama will sign it despite Turkey's
    serious resistance. My colleagues in the Congress know that Armenian
    genocide is historical factor and Barack Obama agrees with this idea".
