Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The American establishment has reacted quite
toughly to change of ties between Turkey and Israel.
Michael Pens, a member of the US House of Representatives on behalf of
the Republican Party, has stated that if Turkey deepening relations
with Iran is going to continue conflicting with Israel, then that
will cost dear for it.
"For instance, it can lose support in the issue of counteraction
to adoption of resolution on recognition of genocide of Armenians,"
Pens claimed.
At that, this March Pens was one of those congressmen who in the US
House Committee on Foreign Relations voted against adoption of Draft
Resolution 252 on Armenian genocide recognition. Then he emphasized
that he believes that genocide of Armenians occurred in the Ottoman
Empire earlier last century but "Turkey is a strategic partner of the
US and I assert that the moment for genocide recognition has not come".
Yesterday Syrian president Bashar Assad stated, in his turn, about
epochal changes in the Middle East and predicted a new war in the
region if the current Israeli government (he called it the government
of 'warmongers') fails to change its policy.
