The Foreign Relations Council, which is one of the reputable
organizations in the United States, has issued a rather extensive,
96-page report entitled "U.S.-Turkey Relations: New Partnership".
Radio Station Liberty informs that the report on the Armenian Cause
states that because of the efforts of the Armenian community in
America to persuade the US Congress and administration to recognize
the 1915 massacres as Genocide often brings about tension in US-Turkey
bilateral relations.
In the proposals section of the report it is stated that the United
States shouldn't view its relations with Turkey in a narrow prism of
special issues, be it relations with Armenia, Israel or NATO.
"The United States has moral interest in working with all sides to
clarify the ongoing issue with Armenia and the 1915 massacres, but
U.S.-Turkey partnership is much broader than the Armenian tragedy,
the difficult state of Turkish-Israeli affairs or the false discussions
on Turkey's position in the West," is stated in the report.
The coinciding military interests and the huge potential of US-Turkey
cooperation must not suffer because of special political interests,
experts think.
At the same time, the authors mention that the official Washington
must make another attempt to help the Turks and Armenians move forward
with the Turkey-Armenia Protocols , which were signed in 2009 and gave
the opportunity to normalize relations between the two countries. The
change of the status-quo might improve Ankara's relations with Yerevan,
which in its turn will debilitate the tension between Turkey and the
U.S. due to the Armenian Cause and will help pave the way for Turkey
to become a leader in the Caucasus-something that Turkey wants,"
as stated in the report.
Experts say that will also ameliorate the atmosphere for the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution and that the United States should
actively promote that kind of a resolution. According to the source,
the investigative group including 23 famous experts is led by former
U.S. Secretary of State Madlen Albright.
