"The interesting thing what will happen in Washington in April is that
Turkey’s delays and games make the U.S. angry. And the U.S. Congress
can again appeal to discussions on recognition of the Genocide not for
the importance of the issue, but to punish Turkey. Turkey’s fastening
down the process of ratification of Armenia-Turkey protocols may lead
to recognition by Congress the 1915 mass killings of Armenians in
Turkey as Genocide," said Director of Armenian Center for National
and Strategic Studies Richard Girakosian.

According to Richard Girakosian, Deputy Secretary of State James B.

Steinberg’s visit to Armenia and Georgia has nothing to do with the
settlement to the Karabakh problem. Actually, this is a message related
to Turkey as it fastens down the process of ratification of protocols.

"President Obama may decide to solve this issue to demonstrate that
he is a strong leader and is standing for principles. In other words,
Turkey’s strategy may bring actually strong reaction against Turkey."
