ANKARA, Turkey: Turkey's foreign minister says a resolution by the U.S. Congress calling killings by Ottoman Turks genocide could harm his country's efforts to improve ties with Armenia.
Ali Babacan says that Turkey and Armenia are already discussing the 1915 killings and "steps that could be taken by third countries on the issue would not bring any good but harm this process." He spoke Wednesday.
Babacan says "we hope parliamentarians, parliaments become aware of this process and act responsibly."
The resolution introduced Tuesday could undermine efforts by President Barack Obama to win help on key foreign policy goals from NATO ally Turkey. Obama will visit Turkey early April.

What more excuses could Turkey come up with, in order to avoid taking responsibility for its behaviour?
If Turkey is allowed to get away with this continuing denial, it will expect to get away with all the other tyrannies it has carried out since!
