/PanARMENIAN.Net/ “The attitude of Senators and U.S. politicians to a country depends on many factors. If Turkey is not significant for the U.S. so we can expect recognition of the Armenian Genocide. Why is Western Europe so strict on Turkey’s accession to the EU and constantly raising the Armenian Genocide issue? Is it commemoration of the killed Armenians or special liking for Armenians? Not at all,” Director of the Department of Conflictology of the Institute of Peace and Democracy Arif Yunusov stated. In his words, “the matter is not Armenians but the attitude towards Turkey.” Western Europe is rather afraid of this country and doesn’t want her to enter the Christian club titled the European Union. If not the Armenian Genocide they will raise another question. The same story is with the United States. Not Armenians but the attitude towards Turkey dictates decisions. To all appearance the Genocide recognition issue will be constantly raised the U.S."
