    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ It is already clear that Turkey does not intend to
    ratify the Armenian-Turkish Protocols , Giro Manoyan , head of the
    Central Office of Hay Dat (Armenian Cause) told a news conference
    in Yerevan.

    According to him the recent statements of the Turkish side are the
    pretext for Armenia to declare that the Armenian-Turkish normalization
    has failed because of Ankara, to withdraw from the process and to
    state that Armenia would return to the negotiating table only if
    Turkey agree to held talks without preconditions. "The later we
    withdraw from the process, the harder it would be," Manoyan said.

    He also referred to the statements of some U.S. Congressmen,
    who argued that the decision of the U.S. House of Representatives
    Committee on Foreign Affairs to adopt Armenian Genocide resolution
    252 may interfere with Armenian-Turkish process. According to him,
    those statements became a lever of pressure on Armenia in the Karabakh
    settlement, as well.

    On March 4 the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign
    Affairs adopted Armenian Genocide resolution (H.Res.252) by 23 votes "n
    favour"and with 22 votes "against". After the vote in the appropriate
    committee, the resolution will be sent to the House of Representatives
    for a final vote.

    The Protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
    the border between Armenia and Turkey were signed in Zurich by Armenian
    Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet
    Davutoglu on October 10, 2009, after a series of diplomatic talks
    held through Swiss mediation.

    On January 12, 2010, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of
    Armenia found the protocols conformable to the country' Organic Law.

    The Armenian Cause (Hay Dat) is the whole set of problems taking start
    with the Armenian national liberation movement for restoration of the
    independent Armenian state and reunification of Armenians. The core
    issue is the worldwide recognition of the Armenian Genocide. Hay Dat
    has offices across the globe.
