US HOUSE COMMISSION ADOPTS RESOLUTION 106
U.S. House Foreign Relations Commission adopted Resolution 106 on recognition of the Armenian Genocide in a late vote yesterday. The Resolution was adopted by a vote of 27 for and 21 against. The Congress appeals to U.S. President to clearly present the historical fact in his annual presidential address made on the anniversary of the Armenian Genocide when 1.5 million Armenians were intentionally murdered by Ottoman Turkey, the document adopted by the commission says. Before the discussion of the Resolution, President George W. Bush appealed to the congressmen to decline the document saying it undermines Turkish-American relations. President of Turkey Abdullah Giul has already managed to give names to the adopted resolution saying it is unacceptable. On Tuesday, he had warned President Bush that the adoption of the resolution would create serious dangers for Turkish-American relation. Particularly, Giul expressed his concern, saying: Some U.S. political figures turned out to be dumb for acting from healthy positions and are trying one more time to subordinate the interests of big politics to trivial internal political games.

"Dumb" are not the US politicians. But are those Turkish ones, who mixed Turkey's interests with Azerbaijan's inner problems. As an experienced government, Turkey should not get involved in the Armenian-Azeri problem, thus creating Armenian-Turkish problem. What's next... Azeris claim lands from Iran... c'mon "Big brother" Turkey, protect Azeri side's interests... mess with Iran...
