Baku - APA. Draft resolution on the so-called "Armenian genocide" was
not brought into the agenda of the US House of Representatives. APA
reports quoting CNN Turk that H.Res.252 was not included into the
agenda of the plenary meeting.
Nancy Pelosi, pro-Armenian speaker of the House of Representatives,
was going to bring to discussion the so-called "Armenian genocide"
draft resolution. The Turkish government and the Turkish Diaspora
in the US worked seriously together with the Obama administration
and congressmen to prevent this attempt. Turkish Prime Minister Recep
Tayyip Erdogan sent a letter to the U.S. President Barack Obama warning
the passage of the draft resolution will damage the relations between
the two countries.
Philip Crowley, Assistant Secretary of State, said at the briefing
that they are against it and will openly express their position to
the Congress.
