Nabi Sensoy described the introduction of Genocide resolution to U.S. Senate as "unfortunate''

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey's Ambassador in Washington D.C. Nabi Sensoy described a resolution introduced to the U.S. Senate regarding Armenian Genocide as "unfortunate". Sensoy said introduction of the resolution was "extremely wrong".



"Before all, this was not an unexpected development. I don't think it was the right time to take this step since the resolution was introduced immediately after the signing of the Turkey-Armenia Protocols. It is wrong and sad. I am hopeful that it (the resolution) will not reach the (Senate) floor. I think there will be no progress on this issue," he said.



Referring to relations between Turkey and Azerbaijan, and U.S. stance on the matter, Sensoy said, "before all we think it will extremely beneficial to put relations between Turkey and Armenia into a new course thanks to this protocol, establish diplomatic relations, and to open borders. We think this will contribute not only to relations between Turkey and Armenia but also to peace, stability and security of a region full of 'frozen' problems".



"Turkey does not want its relations to be negatively affected by Azerbaijan which we call as 'one nation two states'. It was regardless of question for Turkey to sign any development that would be against its Azerbaijani brothers," Sensoy said, reported Anatolian News Agency.
