At that he noted that Armenia cannot stay aside watching Ankara's denial policy. "We are surprised to see how some Congressmen yield to Turkey's policy of threats towards the Unites States. It's inadmissible," the Armenian FM said.Armenia has never questioned the Armenian Genocide issue. "It's an incontestable fact and the whole international community is aware of it. The point is recognition. Offers to appeal to the International Court have little effect.
