 Turkey’s Abdullah Gul released an official statement on the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs approving the resolution 252 recognizing the Armenian Genocide. The official message, which is available on Turkish President’s official web site, states:

“I consider the decision unreasonable and I regret it. It lacks respect to the Turkish nation. The adopted resolution is far from the historical realities and is incompatible with Armenia-Turkey relations. The decision will significantly damage the stability and peace in Caucasus, as well as the nations’ efforts to establish long-term good-neighborly relations. I see this decision, following the political configuration, as injustice to history. After this voting, Turkey does not claim responsibility for negative results in any sphere,” Gul said.
