    Turkish expert Omer TaÅ~_pınar issued an article "Armenian lobby and
    the US Congress", highlighting the consequences to move forth with
    the adoption of the Armenian Genocide Resolution in the US Congress,
    saying these are three:

    1. Obama-backed Armenian-Turkish rapprochement has, actually, not been
    called to life fully. Ratification of the protocols has been frozen.

    2. The US face elections. The democrats are in grave condition due
    to the economic crisis and unemployment. Any vote comes significant
    to them. The democrats will make efforts to gain the votes of the
    Armenian community in Massachusetts.

    3. Jewish lobby is indignant over Erdogan-led party in Turkey.

    Turkish-Israeli relations are in agony. The Jewish lobby, actually,
    will undertake no steps in favor of Turkey in the US Congress. They
    may even evolve anti-Turkish activity.

    The Turkish expert highlights that Ankara continues to spill water
    into the US-Armenian lobby mill by freezing the protocols and putting
    forth Nagorno-Karabakh settlement as precondition.

    TaÅ~_pınar suggests Erdogan's government a way out of the situation:
    establish good ties with Yerevan.

    "Cultural initiatives with Armenia should be encouraged by inviting
    Armenian journalists, scientists, art and social figures to Turkey.

    Lets' not forget: any positive step with Armenia is to advance Turkish
    affairs in the US Congress," Omer TaÅ~_pınar said.
