"US Congress will vote positively on the resolution at least during the next discussions."

Start of discussions on the "genocide" Resolution at the US Congress is another alarm to Ankara to intensify efforts in the Armenian-Turkish process, says Gagik Haroutiunyan, Director of Noravank Fund of Science and Education.

He said that the US Congress will vote positively on the resolution at least during the next discussions. The expert believes that recognition of the Armenian Genocide is inevitable and will contribute to rehabilitation of international relations in general.

For his part, Director of Oriental Studies Institute, Armenian Academy of Science, Ruben Safrastyan said that the USA will probably recognize the "Armenian genocide" within the nearest future.

US House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Howard Berman has scheduled his panel to vote on the "genocide" resolution on March 4 2010.
