"Discussion of H.Res.106 proved that no one in the United States, including the Bush administration, denies the fact of the Armenian Genocide, Director of the Caucasus Media Institute, political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan said during Yerevan-Moscow space bridge.
In his opinion, adoption of the resolution appeared as an important political act for the region where Turkey, Iraq and Kurds are located.
"Turkish expansion and huge migration flows urged on majority of European states to recognize the Armenian Genocide. These factors do not exist in the U.S. yet," the political scientist said.
