“US president have stopped the genocide resolution in the past, and I believe that president Obama will do so in this case”, said Shale Horowitz, professor on international and ethnic conflicts, at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Meanwhile, analyst believes that there is a lot of political posturing all around on this issue.
“There is no inherent reason why such resolutions matter much. They have not mattered when they have been passed by other countries”.
According to Mr. Horowitz, US Congressman are mostly trying to please domestic constituencies when they vote for resolutions like “Armenian genocide” one.
Speaking about the protocols between Turkey and Armenia, he says they seem to be a diplomatic ruse.
“It seems clear that the protocols will not be approved in Turkey unless there is a settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh dispute” – he added.
