Today the coordinator of the Armenian National Congress Levon Zurabyan
touched upon the US President Barak Obama’s address, mentioning that
not pronouncing the "Genocide" term was expected.
According to the opposition politician the whole Armenian – Turkish
process was tended to not disturbing the Turkish – American allied
relations.
"All that "football diplomacy" was thought over for that very reason,
in order to give an opportunity to the United Nations and Turkey
to preserve the allied relations and not to blow them up by the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide," Levon Zurabyan said.
