    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said 100
    thousand illegal Armenian migrants can be deported from the country.

    "There are 170 thousand Armenians living in Turkey. 70 thousand of
    them are Turkish citizens. If necessary, I will tell the remaining 100
    thousand to leave. I can do so because they are not Turkish citizens
    and I'm not obliged to keep them in my country," BBC Turkce quoted
    Erdogan as saying.

    The fierce reaction of the Turkish PM came after the adoption of
    the Armenian Genocide resolution, H.Res.252, by the US House Foreign
    Affairs Committee on March 4 and passage of a resolution recognizing
    the Genocide of Armenians, Assyrians, Chaldeans and Pontiac Greeks
    by the Swedish parliament on March 11.
