Namik Tan: Armenians would not achieve anything regarding Congressman Adam Schiff's initiative

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkish Ambassador in Washington, D.C. Namik Tan said on Thursday that he considered that Armenians would not achieve anything regarding Congressman Adam Schiff's initiative. When he was reminded that Schiff called survivors of 1915 incidents to submit their stories for inclusion into the Congressional Record and asked if Turkey had an initiative against it, Tan said, "we left behind a very sensitive period regarding Armenians. They regarded it as a big defeat. They will exert such efforts. But I think that they will not achieve anything."

"If such stories are included in the Congressional Record, we will document more stories and put them in the record. I don't have any concern on the matter," TURKISHNY cited Tan as saying.
