Adam Schiff: We cannot let Turkey edit history

WASHINGTON, SEPTEMBER 25, NOYAN TAPAN. Representatives of Armenian
Council of America (ACA) met with Congressman Adam Schiff. The
interlocutors discussed the latest developments on adoption of the
Armenian Genocide resolution, US-Armenia relations, Armenia-Turkey
relations, and the Obama administration’s policies toward Armenia and
Nagorno Karabakh. The ACA representatives thanked and praised
Congressman Schiff for his support to the recognition of the Armenian
Genocide and the sovereignty of Nagorno Karabakh. According to the
panarmenian.net, the congressman reaffirmed his position touching upon
the Armenian-Turkish relations.

"I welcome the process of normalization of the Armenian-Turkish
relations and I hope that as a result of the negotiations the border
will be opened and diplomatic relations will be established between
Ankara and Yerevan. However meanwhile I have serious concerns about the
protocols of the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations," Adam
Schiff declared.

The American Congressman declared that he is deeply disappointed with
the fact that the protocols call for the creation of an historical
commission to review the events of 1915-23. "We cannot let Turkey edit
the history and it become the price of the normalization of
Armenian-Turkish relations," Adam Schiff said.
