    ANKARA, April 2 (Xinhua) -- Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
    said on Friday he was returning Turkey's ambassador to Washington after
    he was recalled to protest a U.S. congressional committee resolution
    labelling as "genocide" the killings of Armenians by Ottoman forces
    during World War I, CNN Turk reported.

    Erdogan also confirmed that he would travel to the United States to
    attend the International Nuclear Security Summit in Washington on
    April 12-13.

    March 4 adopted a resolution branding the killings of Armenians in
    the late Ottoman Empire as genocide.
