Ankara took action after Jewish organization in the United States
ADL accepted the incidents in 1915 as "Armenian Genocide".
Turkey expects Israel to get Jewish lobby in the U.S. to back
down, said Turkish Ambassador to Turkey Namik Tan, regarding the
Anti-Defamation League’s (ADL) reversal of position last week on the
Armenian allegations.
In an exclusive interview with Israel’s prominent English daily
Jerusalem Post, Tan said he understood that Israel’s position had
not changed and that Israel should not let the U.S. Jewish community
change its position regarding the incidents of 1915.
