House panel OKs Armenian genocide measure
Turkish government upset, says it’s recalling ambassador in Washington found a non ap article:
House panel approves resolution recognizing Armenian genocideThe 23-22 vote comes despite a last-minute attempt by the Obama administration to delay the action and avoid offending Turkey. A full House vote on the measure remains uncertain.
By Richard Simon
Reporting from Washington - A divided congressional panel Thursday voted 23 to 22 to approve a resolution to officially recognize the Armenian genocide despite a last-minute attempt by the Obama administration to delay a vote on the long-debated measure.
Whether the measure will come before the full House remained uncertain. House Foreign Affairs Chairman Rep. Howard L. Berman (D-Valley Village), has said he would only bring the issue before the House if there were enough votes to pass it.
Before the meeting, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton had told Berman that the vote could "impede progress on normalization of relations" between Turkey and Armenia, the spokesman for the National Security Council said.
But Berman said during the meeting that the United States, as a leader in promoting human rights, has a "moral responsibility" to pass the resolution. "Perhaps there will be consequences. . . . But I believe that Turkey values its relations with the United States as much as we value our relations with Turkey."
