According to the newspaper, participation of the Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK) in the high-level meetings between Turkish and American authorities is no more significant. Instead, the main topics of these meetings are Iraq, Iran and especially the possible recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the U.S. Congress.
The newspaper wrote that if before U.S. President George Bush managed to convince the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives not to hold discussions on the Armenian Genocide, then after the victory of Democrats House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will hardly yield to Bush pressures.
Therefore, the possibility of adoption of an Armenian bill by the House is extremely high. The US Government is still considering Turkey's steps in case of recognition of the Armenian Genocide and is calculating the damage to U.S. interests, reports Yerkir. - PanARMENIAN.Net
