"The 106 Resolution is not an ideal version for Armenia,- considers
politician Stepan Grigoryan,- we are delighted that the U.S. House
Foreign Affairs Committee adopted the Resolution, but the interests
of the state lose in this case". The politician considers that in
the current process of the Karabakh conflict settlement, it is not
profitable for us to spoil relations with the powerful neighbor,
particularly when Turkey is the military alliance of the US.

"Turkey may threaten the Unites States by taking punishing measures, in
case the States adopts the Genocide bill,-says Stepan Grigoryan,-Both
countries may suffer in the result of these processes, and Armenia
will never gain anything". According to him, the possible outcome of
the adoption of the resolution may be the delay of the Armenia-Turkey
relations stabilization.

As whether Armenia needs to have normal and friendly relations with
our neighbor, Stepan Grigoryan noted: "The Armenian Genocide will
definitely be adopted, but the Turkish society should mature for
it. They are not ready to face the historical truth, and the Congress
resolutions do not involve this function. Thus, we should at least
try to stabilize our relations without preconditions", considers
the politician.
