Turksih Foreign Minsietr Ahmet Davutoglu and US Secertary of State
Hilary Clinton had a phone conversation on Sunday.

During the conversation, which lasted 40 minutes, the foreign-policy
chiefs of the two countries discussed the Armenian Genocide Resolution
adopted by the House Foreign Relations Committee and the process of
normalizing Turkish-Armenian relations.

Ahmet Davutoglu expressed hope that in his April 24th address U.S.
President Barack Obama would take into account the concerns of Turkey
on this issue.

According to him, the adoption of decisions by third countries, judging
history, affects the process of normalizing Turkish-Armenian relations.

"The process, which will positively impact not only the relations
between Turkey and Armenia, but also the situation in the Caucasus,
should not fall victim to domestic political scores," said Ahmet
Davutoglu.

The latest developments in the Middle East, as well as the situation
in Iraq and Iran were also on the agenda of the two officials’
conversation, officials said.
