“Armenian Genocide issue has become a headache for Turkish government,” Abbas Ghare Aghachlu, professor at Turkish “Girisun” university, has told to Iranian IRNA news agency.
Iranian scientist has touched upon the resolution of recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the foreign relations commission of the U.S. Senate, and has noted, “Previously parliaments of 36 countries had recognized the Armenian Genocide. Regarding the growing tension between Ankara and Washington it is possible that the U.S. Senate will officially recognize the Armenian Genocide implemented by the Ottoman Turkey.”
Abbas Ghare Aghachlu also added, “Before the Jewish lobby was managing to hinder such drafts. The situation changed after the “Mavi Marmara” ship incident. I don’t think that the Jewish lobby will support Turkey as it did before. If the Armenian, Jewish and Greek lobbies unite, the U.S. Senate will approve the Armenian Genocide resolution.”
Coming up to the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide the Iranian scientist has noted, “It will be hard for Turkey till 2015; the presidential; and parliamentary elections on one hand and the Syrian crises on another.”
