    Fikret Sadikhov Fikret Sadikhov has commented on the US-Turkish
    relations.

    Political scientist Fikret Sadikhov has commented on the US-Turkish
    relations in the light of the upcoming discussion of the resolution
    to recognize "Armenian genocide" in the US Congress.

    "The relations between Ankara and Washington began to worsen after
    Turkey's rapprochement with Russia and Ankara's anti-Israeli steps. It
    hoped that the United States will help it join the EU, but Turkey has
    not yet received support in this issue", political scientist Fikret
    Sadikhov told.

    In addition, he said Washington's idea to put pressure on Ankara
    in the recognition of the so-called "genocide" every time has also
    affected the relations.

    "In this connection, the statement of Turkish FM Ahmed Davutoglu who
    said Turkey is not a country that can be blackmailed, is a preventive
    step for Washington to be aware of the implications of the recognition
    of the 'Armenian genocide'", he said.

    According to the political scientist, if Washington recognizes
    "genocide", Turkey may strengthen ties with Moscow.

    According to Sadikhov, US actions in this direction may undermine
    their influence in the Islamic and Turkic world: "Thus, the United
    States should ponder over their policy in this region".
