ANKARA, JANUARY 17, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. U.S. Ambassador to
Turkey R.Wilson is sure that President George Bush will do everything
to prohibit discussion and ratification of the bill on Armenian
Genocide in Congress.

He stated in his interview to Sabah Turkish newspaper that the above
mentioned bill is the most important issue on Washington-Ankara
relations agenda: "At the moment Washington cannot promise Turkey
that this resolution will not be adopted, as the U.S. administration
does not know what will happen. But George Bush will counteract to
this resolution, as President Klinton did this in his time," the
U.S. Ambassador declared.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
