Goran Lenmarker: Armenian-Turkish process to be continued regardless of decisions on Armenian Genocide in US Congress and Swedish Riksdag.

The Armenian-Turkish process to be continued regardless of the decisions on the Armenian 'genocide' in US Congress and Swedish Riksdag, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Swedish parliament Goran Lenmarker said.

According to him, advance of the process of normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia is of high priority. G. Lenmarker said he is not going to judge how adoption of the Resolution in the Swedish Parliament and the House Committee on Foreign Affairs of US Congress will affect the process of normalization of Armenia- Turkey relations, however he thinks it will go on.

Goran Lenmarker, who is currently participating in the PA NATO seminar in Yerevan, said he would vote for adoption of the resolution if he were in Sweden on Thursday, since he is one of the authors of the resolution that was submitted by the Foreign Affairs Committee.

"I supported that resolution when the Committee proposed it," he said. To recall, the Swedish Riksdag adopted the resolution on Armenian 'genocide' in Ottoman Turkey with 131 votes "for" and 130 votes "against".
