CHP deputy chairman Onur Oymen: Armenia should free occupied Azerbaijani regions instead of slandering Turkey

He said that the decision which Congress will make is a step which can strain Turkish-US relations.
â€œThis decision will strain Turkish-Armenian relations. We expect whether US government will impede adoption of the so-called Armenian genocide. If the decision is made, Turkey is due to take several measures and everybody will be able to see its harm. If we speak about reality, in this case Armeniaâ€™s liberating Azerbaijani regions should be commented. People who underwent genocide in Khojali, Shusha, and other places should be mentioned. US Congressâ€™s making such decision is not true,â€ he said.
Onur Oymen stated that AKP government could not take necessary measures for impeding adoption of law on the so-called Armenian genocide. It was necessary to invite congressmen to Turkey and explain to them arguments. For example: US send fire-arms, food, clothes to its forces dislocated in Iraq through Turkey. Armenia exports its demands through Turkey,â€ he said.
Onur Oymen stated that the draft resolution which US Congress will adopt can strain Turkish-Armenian relations.
â€œArmenia should free occupied Azerbaijani regions instead of slandering Turkey,â€ he said. /APA/
