Turkey’s prime minister has threatened to expel thousands of illegal
Armenian immigrants after US and Swedish lawmakers passed votes
branding World War One-era killings of Armenians by Ottoman Turks
as genocide.
Turkey, a NATO member and candidate to join the European Union,
recalled its ambassadors to Washington and Stockholm after the
non-binding votes and warned they could hurt a fragile effort to
reconcile with Armenia after a century of hostility. (Reuters)
