Washington – APA. Barack Obama administration could reach an agreement
with the House of Representatives not to include the draft resolution
on the "Armenian genocide" into the agenda of the Congress.

APA reports Rep. George Radanovich said in his interview to the
Russian service of the Voice of America that there is no ground no
say that H. Res. 252 will be included into the agenda of the Congress.

"As far as I know Obama administration could reach an agreement with
the House of Representatives not to include the draft resolution into
the agenda of the Congress. Anyway, the Armenian community of the US
should continue pressures for the passage of the resolution. Sooner
or later this draft resolution will be discussed in the Congress,"
he said.

Assessing the influence of the passage of the draft resolution on
Turkey-US relations, Radanovich said it will create some crisis in
the relations, but everything will be all right as time passes.

"Turks will feel hurt for three months, but ten everything will be
all right, because the two countries need each other. This is not
the issue to damage the relations," he said.
