Turkish organizers in the U.S. are making preparations to halt the
approval of a resolution in U.S. Congress on recognizing the Armenian
Genocide.

As reported by Turkish news agency Ankara, the presidents of the
Turkish Coalition of America, the Federation of Turkish-American
Associations and the Turkish Cultural Foundation made an announcement
in New York recently announcing such plans.

According to the statement, Turkish not-for-profit organizations in
the U.S. are preparing to join their efforts in their fight against
the Armenian Genocide recognition resolution, and with that in mind,
will be meeting with different members of the U.S. Congress and will
begin lobbying for support from U.S. citizens of Turkish origin.
