`AMERICA OBSTACLE TO ARMENIAN-TURKISH DIALOGUE,’ SAYS ALI BABACAN
`We have started a new phase of activities with Armenia, which was
being kept secret for some time. After the football game the
information became public. We have never been so close to solving the
problems. In order to do the final step, both sides should put forth
the efforts,’ announced the Foreign Minister of Turkey Ali Babacan
during a live broadcast of one of Turkish TV stations.
According to the Ministry, the American Armenians conduct serious
lobbyist activities to have the Armenian Genocide recognized. `In this
stage if the US Government recognizes Armenian Genocide it will become
an obstacle to Armenian-Turkish dialogue,’ said the Foreign Minister
of Turkey.
