White House urges Turkey and Armenia to live in present, not in past

White House urges Turkey and Armenia not to return to historical events, but live for today, Hammer was quoted as saying by the Turkish newspaper Milliyet newspaper.

U.S. Congress International Relations Commission Chairman Howard Berman proposed to submit the issue consideration on March 4.

Armenia claims that the Ottoman Empire committed genocide against Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915.

Making greater efforts to promote the issue internationally, Armenians have achieved its recognition by parliaments of some countries.

It is expected that the Armenian lobby will intensify its activities in parliaments worldwide, particularly in the U.S. Congress, in connection with the anniversary of "genocide" in April.
