Yerevan (Yerkir) - While the US House Foreign Relations Committee
passed the Armenian Genocide resolution as it had done before, it
was more difficult this time to pass Resolution 252, Kiro Manoyan,
the director of the ARF Bureau's Hay Dat and Political Affairs Office,
said at a news conference today.
"Yesterday's decision is not an answer to all our issues, it is rather
another stage in the Armenian-Turkish competition on the US arena,
and the Armenian side won this time," Manoyan said. He said that he
passage of the resolution was a serious pressure on Turkey and the
White House. Turkey is pressurized to take the negotiations with
Armenia more seriously, while the pressure on the White House is
made to prevent it from hampering the Armenian Genocide recognition
in Congress.
