TURKEY MAY APPLY INTERNATIONAL LAW AGAINST ARMENIA BILLS
March 24 2010
Turkey
Turkey considers resorting to international law as an option to halt
Armenia bills.
A Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman on Wednesday said Turkey
considered resorting to international law as an option in its efforts
to head off foreign parliaments from affirming Armenian allegations
on the incidents of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire.
"We are evaluating all options and appealing to international law
is one of them," Burak Ozugergin told reporters at a weekly press
briefing when responding to a question.
Swedish parliament approved earlier this month a resolution that
confirmed Armenian allegations just a week after a U.S. House foreign
affairs panel adopted a similar resolution.
Ozugergin said such resolutions "did harm" to Turkey’s relations with
countries which approved them as well as with Armenia.
