    RESOLUTIONS ON SO-CALLED ARMENIAN GENOCIDE SPARK PROTEST WORLDWIDE

    Baku March 26


    Officials from a number of countries voiced their protest against
    resolutions on the so-called Armenian genocide passed by the US House
    Committee on Foreign Affairs and Swedish Parliament,

    US congressmen Michael McMahon, Mike Pence, the National Director of
    the Anti-Defamation League Abraham Foxman and other diplomats issued
    statements claiming Turkey is an ally for the US. They said the
    resolution have a negative impact on Turkey-Armenia rapprochement and
    solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem.

    US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates stated the resolution is false
    and the congress would not take any step to pass it.

    Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu said in an interview to CNN Turk TV channel
    that 1915 events should be judged fairly and openly.

    He noted the Turkish Government is alongside Azerbaijan with respect
    to peace talks on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
