ANKARA, March 6 (Itar-Tass) -- Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said Saturday’s vote in the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs on a resolution recognising the fact of “Armenian genocide” during the Ottoman Empire was a comedy.

“The scenario that was played out turned out to be a comedy. The country will not put up with the lie that is being forced upon it,” he said."
