01 March 2010 14:48 (UTC +04:00)

APA reports quoting CNN TÃ¼rk. Spokesman for Turkish Foreign Ministry Burak Ozugergin expressed his regret about it: â€œWe feel regret about the inclusion of H.Res.252 into the agenda of the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Relations Committee, which supports unfounded allegations of Armenian genocide. We brought our position to the notice of different US officials. We are waiting for the US rejection of H.Res.252, which will harm bilateral relations between Turkey and US and hamper the efforts in the direction of normalization of the relations between Turkey and Armenia. We want to believe that the Committee members will understand the harm of the adoption of this bill in Turkey-US relations, including peace efforts in the South Caucasusâ€.
