Ankara is not waiting for an "Armenian Genocide" resolution to come before the US Congress.

Just as in April of last year, so in the future, Ankara is not waiting for an "Armenian Genocide" resolution to come before the US Congress, said newly appointed Turkish Ambassador to the US Namik Tan.

“We not expect such a negative step from our ally, the United States, not this year, nor in the upcoming years. Particularly, in the context of our effective cooperation this year, such measures would have serious consequences. They would simply be a blow to the work of securing stability in the South Caucasus and would halt all efforts in that direction,” said Tan, adding that such resolutions are simply “unfounded.”

The Turkish ambassador also said that Turkey made one of the most important steps in history by signing the protocols in normalizing relations with Armenia.
