Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan is due to meet with his British counterpart Gordon Brown in London March 16. Erdogan is planning to prevent the endorsement of the Armenian Genocide Resolution by the British House of Commons, Anka reported.

Turkey’s PM will warn of the possible negative consequences the approval of the resolution may have, those including the deterioration of the Turkish-English ties and the failure of the Armenian-Turkish reconciliation process.

Panorama.am recalls that the British House of Commons initiated discussions on the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day bill introduced in the Commons in January.

The bill has been presented to the House of Commons by Labour MP Andrew Dismore January 6, while the House scheduled a second reading of the bill April 30. To become a law, the bill should be approved by the House of Lords and deserve Queen’s approval.
