Turkish PM: Consideration of resolution on Armenian genocide in U.S. can negatively affect Turkish-American relations

"I rely on Barack Obama's sanity, who oversees the normalization of Turkish-Armenian relations" he added.

The question of "genocide", should not be considered by politicians, it should be studied by historians, he said.

U.S Congress's International Relations Commission Chairman Howard Berman proposed to submit the so-called 'Armenian genocide' for consideration March 4.

Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that the predecessor of Turkey - Ottoman Empire - conducted genocide against Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915.  Making greater efforts to promote the so-called "genocide" in the world, Armenians, who want recognition of this fact in the world, achieved its recognition by the parliaments of some countries.
