The U.S. State Department's desire to expedite ratification of the
Ankara-Yerevan protocols is groundless, Halil Unlutepe, Turkish MP
from the opposition Republican People's Party, said.
The Armenian Constitutional Court has amended the text of the protocol
and based on the court's decision, ratification of the signed protocols
is possible. However, the court found unacceptable the creation of
a joint commission to investigate the 1915 events.
He said the U.S. State Department's statement in support of
ratification of the protocols, regardless of the changes made by
the Armenian side, is connected to the anniversary of the so-called
"Armenian genocide."
According to him, the U.S. government wants to rid itself of the
traditional annual statements in connection with the far-fetched
"genocide."
The U.S. leadership's desire to resolve one problem through
ratification of protocols, may provoke new problems, the MP said.
Turkey's parliament will not ratify the protocols signed with the
predatory state, he added.
