Members of the Turkish Government characterized the adoption of the
Armenian Genocide Resolution by the Foreign Affairs Committee of the
US House of Representatives as a step countering the friendly and
partnership relations between Ankara and Washington.

"The greatest injustice that can be demonstrated against a nation
is blaming it for genocide. Such a step cannot be explained from
the positions of friendship and partnership, characteristic of the
bilateral relations between Turkey and the United States," declared
Cemil Cicek, Deputy Prime Minister of Turkey.
