Turkey summons US ambassador after Biden recognizes Armenian genocide
By Zeynep Bilginsoy
House votes overwhelmingly to recognize Armenian genocide
Historians estimate that up to 1.5 million Armenians were killed around World War I, and many scholars see it as the 20th century s first genocide.
ISTANBUL (AP) - Turkey’s foreign ministry has summoned the U.S. ambassador in Ankara to protest the U.S. decision to mark the deportation and killing of Armenians during the Ottoman Empire as genocide.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sedat Onal met with David Satterfield late Saturday to express Ankara’s strong condemnation. The statement does not have legal ground in terms of international law and has hurt the Turkish people, opening a wound that’s hard to fix in our relations, the ministry said.
