Cypriot-Americans join Armenians against Matthew Bryza

In the hottest diplomatic dispute facing Congress as it convenes next
week will be issue of candidacy of U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan, The
Washington Times reported.

It said that Cypriot-Americans had joined the Armenian-Americans’
campaign against Matthew J. Bryza (Armenian-Americans, in
particularly, have been campaigning to prevent Bryza from serving as
U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan).

“Matthew Bryza’s troubling diplomatic record and his conflict of
interest issues in regard to his bias toward Turkey’s cycle of
impunity and denial of Turkey’s crime of genocide and Turkey’s illegal
invasion and occupation of Cyprus makes him an unsuitable
representative in any post,” the Cyprus Action Network of America said
in the statement.

The Washington Times said that Cypriot-Americans’ statement and
position were caused due the fact that Matthew Bryza’s wife was born
in Turkey and is a Turkish.
