Turkish FM spokesman Burak Ozugergin expressed hope that Israeli
Parliament will not adopt Armenian Genocide resolution this year.
Ankara’s posture on the matter is clear: "History should be assessed
by historians, not the parliaments. The resolution on 1915 events in
Ottoman Empire was presented in Israeli Parliament earlier, but as
usual we consider that this year as well the motion will be rejected,"
Turkishny quotes Ozugergin.
He also added that Turkish FM representative will visit Israel
shortly to discuss bilateral relations, as well as issues on peace
establishment in the Middle East.
In addition, Ozugergin forecasted no progress in relations with
Armenia in the near future.
