    TURKEY MAY RESORT TO INTERNATIONAL LAW TO END FOREIGN SUPPORT OF ARMENIAN CLAIMS

    Anadolu Agency, Turkey
    March 24 2010

    Ankara, 24 March: A Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman on Wednesday
    said Turkey considered resorting to international law as an option in
    its efforts to head off foreign parliaments from affirming Armenian
    allegations on the incidents of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire.

    "We are evaluating all options and appealing to international law
    is one of them," Burak Ozugergin told reporters at a weekly press
    briefing when responding to a question.

    Swedish parliament approved earlier this month a resolution that
    confirmed Armenian allegations just a week after a US House foreign
    affairs panel adopted a similar resolution.

    Ozugergin said such resolutions "did harm" to Turkey's relations with
    countries which approved them as well as with Armenia.
