Turkey’s Ambassador to Sweden Zergun Koruturk on arrival in Istanbul
expressed her regret on deterioration of bilateral relations between
the two countries, Cihan Agency reported.

After approving the document, Ankara recalled its ambassador from
Stockholm for consultations. A similar decision was adopted by the
U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee 23 votes to
22 last week. Ankara recalled its ambassadors to these countries to
protest resolutions on the so-called "Armenian genocide" adopted by
the U.S. Congress and Swedish Parliament.

Turkey’s ambassador Koruturk said that she was recalled for
consultations in Ankara. She didn’t specify the date of her return
to Stockholm.

Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt, while commenting the issue,
said that the adoption of the resolution on the so-called "Armenian
genocide" will be a serious blow to the steps towards the normalization
of Turkish-Armenian relations.

According to Foreign Minister, historical events must not be
politicized.
