/PanARMENIAN.Net/ With Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul in the US capital
Washington, DC for official visits, it has been a noticeable gap in
his schedule that he has not been able to meet with the new Speaker
of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi. The Turkish Hurriyet
reports that Pelosi, who has voiced her support for the same Armenian
Genocide bill on which Gul is trying to work against, rejected a
request from the Turkish Foreign Ministry for a meeting with Gul,
with claims that her schedule during Gul’s visit to the U.S. capital
would be too busy to fit him in. The Turkish foreign minister tries
to prevent the adoption of the bill during his official meetings with
the George Bush administration representatives.
