NATO: No comments on U.S.-Turkey relations
15:48 / 03/05/2010 NATO does not make any comments on the tension
between the United States and Turkey ' which are both NATO
member-states ' caused by the approval of the Armenian Genocide
resolution by the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
March 4, U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs approved the Armenian
Genocide resolution by a vote of 23 to 22. Committee Chairman Howard
Berman voted for the resolution as well.
Turkish Ambassador to U.S. Namik Tan was recalled to Turkey for consultations.
The cool-down in the Turkey-U.S. relations may cause problems in
Turkey's broader participation in the operations in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Washington also hopes for Turkey's support in approving
sanctions against Iran at the U.N. Security Council.
