/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In near future Congressman Adam Schiff is going to
introduce a bill, which recognizes the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman
Empire. "As a state we ought to recognize the Armenian Genocide,
and soon I’ll introduce a bill in the House of Representatives on
that issue, which will reflect the position of Congress. I hope that
in case of new Congress leadership finally we well be able adopt it,"
Adam Schiff stated. He also supposed that ‘it is the best opportunity
to adopt a resolution on the Armenian Genocide in the past 10 years.
The Turkish Daily News reports that the Armenian organizations in
the Unites States have already declared that they are going to reach
an adoption of resolution till April 24-the Remembrance Day of the
victims of Armenian Genocide. The Turkish newspaper mentions that
during George Bush 6-year presidency the White House administration
has always impeded the discussions on the resolution of the Armenian
Genocide in the House of Representatives. The Democratic Party’s
victory in November held elections increases the possibility of
recognizing the Armenian Genocide by the Congress, RFE/RL reports.
