/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish lawmaker Vahit Erdem, a member of
the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, submitted letters to a group
of U.S. congressmen over the Armenian Genocide bill discussion,
which is introduced in the agenda of U.S. Congress sessions. Turkish
Daily News reports that the lawmaker warns the congressmen to avoid
risking a major blow to the relationship between Turkey and the United
States. Erdem calls upon the U.S. House representatives "not to repeat
the same mistake made by some European parliaments in the past." "The
numbers of Armenian casualties mentioned in the genocide bill were
largely exaggerated and based solely on Armenian allegations," Vahit
Erdem stated.
