Turkish-Israeli tension may push US to Genocide recognition - Hurriyet
10:59 - 03.09.11
Turkey's recent move to reduce diplomatic relations with Israel
increases the likelihood of the United States recognition of the
Armenian Genocide.
Commenting on the Turkish authorities' decision to impose sanctions
upon Israel in connection with last year's raid on a Gaza-bound aid
flotilla that killed nine people, the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet says
the country may face pressures by the United States and EU countries
with regard to the Armenian Genocide issue.
"Focusing their attention on the upcoming presidential election in the
United States, diplomatic sources say the Jewish lobby will mount a
more active anti-Turkish campaign and back the Armenian lobby's
Genocide efforts in US Congress," the paper claims.
