    US official: No deal to block `genocide' vote in House


    A senior US State Department official on Thursday said he was unaware
    of any deal that would keep the Armenian `genocide' resolution from
    being brought to the full House floor for a vote.


    During a daily press briefing, US State Department Acting Deputy
    Spokesman Gordon Duguid commented on remarks made by Assistant
    Secretary of State Philip Gordon about a speculated-upon deal in
    Congress over the Armenian `genocide' resolution, which was passed in
    the US House Foreign Affairs Committee on March 4.

    Duguid said he was not aware of any deal on the resolution. `That is
    something that Congress will decide,' Duguid noted. `I am unaware of
    any deal.'
