Turkey said on Friday it was determined to press ahead with efforts to normalise ties with Armenia despite a US congresional panel vote terming as 'genocide' the World War I incidents.
"We are determined to press ahead with normalisation of relations with Armenia," Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu told a news conference. However, he said parliamentary rafification of peace accords with Armenia were at risk.
The US House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee on Thursday narrowly voted to approve the nonbinding resolution, which calls on President Barack Obama to ensure US policy formally refers to the killings as 'genocide.' Turkey strongly denies the incidents amounted to genocide.
