Situation in Turkey may develop by “Germany and Holocaust” scenario

The situation in Turkey may develop by “Germany and Holocaust” scenario, said Alexander Sotnichenko, senior analyst of the Saint Petersburg Center of Oriental Studies.

The powerful Armenian lobby in the U.S. yields the palm to the Jewish lobby only. It constantly pressed on the U.S. presidential candidates and Senators to follow the example of France and Russia and pass a resolution recognizing the mass killings of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as Genocide. The term “genocide’ is a very important factor,” he said reminding that all presidential contenders pledged to recognize the Armenian Genocide but none dared to do so hitherto in a fear to lose Turkey as a strategic ally,” the expert noted.

“The history of this resolution records many years. Turkey has been one of the strongest U.S. allies in Middle East since 1946. After the Islamic revolution in Iran, it remained the only one. The United States always attached priority status to relations with Turkey,” he said.
