Azerbaijan, Baku, 5 March / Trend News, A. Huseynbala /
Azerbaijan's ruling party appraises a resolution recognizing the
so-called "Armenian Genocide" by the U.S. House of Representatives
Foreign Affairs Committee as a distortion of historical reality and
roughly violation of the principle of justice.
"As New Azerbaijan Party we expressed categorical protest in
connection with the adoption of such unfair decision containing the
elements of falsification of history by the U.S. Congress, and we have
sent a corresponding letter. Our address openly says that the decision
taken by Congress is directed against the interests of friendly and
brotherly Turkey, as well as Azerbaijan," Deputy Chairman and
Executive Secretary of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party MP Ali Ahmedov
told journalists.
The address also says that adoption of such a decision, which has the
character of pressure on the opening of the Armenian-Turkish borders,
in fact, also directed against the rapid resolution of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Ahmedov said.
U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs on Thursday adopted 23 votes
to 22 a resolution recognizing the so-called "Armenian genocide".
