According to the reports of Armenian press, Armenian lobby in United States struggles to establish contact with Jewish lobby representatives and call them to stand on the same line against Turkey. Their aim is clear.
Armenian lobby plans to bring law draft for recognition of so called Armenian genocide to the Congress again soon. President of United States, Vice President Joseph Biden and Foreign Affairs Minister Hillary Clinton is well known with their pledges about recognition of Armenian allegations. Besides President of U.S. House of Representatives Nancy Pelocy and head of CIA Leon Panetta are pro Armenian officials.
Doing so Armenian lobby aims to pull last castle "Jewish lobby" to their side.
Armenians do not have plenty of time.
Armenian lobby wants to benefit from Jewish lobby before Turkey and Israel relations gets its traditional level again. But also, time is limited for Turkish government too.
There is a need for Turkish diplomats to convince Jewish lobby about supporting Turkey. Actually the tension in the relations with Turkey is not favourable for Israel and Jewish lobby. Both needs the mediation role of Turkey in the middle east. But if Jewish lobby supports Armenian lobby about "genocide" issue, that would blow the flames of anti-Israel approach both in Azerbaijan and Turkey.
Because recognition of Armenian allegations in international platforms harms Azerbaijan too, as it harms Turkey since it would weaken the position of Azerbaijan for liberating Upper Karabakh from occupation of Armenians.
