Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan yesterday met with Turkish
Ambassador to Washington Nabi Sensoy, who was recalled for
consultations last week after a key U.S. House Committee passed a
resolution on Armenian allegations about the incidents of 1915.
During the meeting, Erdogan warned that should the resolution came to
a vote in the full House, this would push Turkish-U.S. relations to
the brink. After the meeting Sensoy told reporters that the majority
in the House seems to be against Turkey. He stated that during his
contacts in the U.S. he stressed that passing the resolution would
damage bilateral relations.
