15:58 / 03/06/2010RA NA Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan sent a letter of
gratitude to Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Nancy
Pelosi.
`Armenia was closely and excitedly following the discussion on
Armenian Genocide resolution in U.S. House Committee on Foreign
Affairs. We are satisfied with vote results. The March 4 voting was
not only tribute to Armenian people, but a just response to the crime
against humanity committed in the beginning of last century,’ the
letter says.
On behalf of National Assembly and himself Abrahamyan expressed
gratitude to Nancy Pelosi and all congressmen for the assistance in
resolution adoption by the Committee. `This is the beginning of a
lasting process. I hope not far off is the day when the House of
Representatives will pass the resolution. It is worth mentioning that
rectification of historical injustice will not impede Armenia-Turkey
relations’ normalization, on the contrary ` it will become a major
step towards both nations’ reconciliation,’ the letter reads.
