ArmInfoIn a conversation with ArmInfo correspondent, Turkish
parliamentarian, member of the ruling Justice and Development Party
of Turkey Suat Kiniklioglu said that he knows US congressmen well
enough and they are the last to judge about people’s history. The
Turkish MP expressed confidence that H.Res.252 on Armenian Genocide
will not be affirmed in the Congress.
But if it is affirmed, the process of normalization with Armenia will
be suspended. Turkey will not accept the process of normalization of
relations with Armenia as the US Congress is unaware where Armenia
is situated on the world map, he said and added that the affirmation
of the H.Res.252 by the US House Committee on Foreign Affairs has
complicated the Armenian-Turkish process. Kiniklioglu pointed out that
the Americans have nothing to do with 1915 and should not judge these
events, as they have neither opportunities nor expertise for that.
