Turkey enraged after US House votes to recognise Armenian genocide

[LazyLion]

Turkey summoned the US ambassador on Wednesday in protest at votes in Congress to recognise the Turkish genocide against Armenians and to sanction Ankara for its military offensive in northeast Syria.

Turkey was outraged at the pair of votes in the House of Representatives and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey’s president, called the American accusations “worthless” and the “biggest insult” to the Turkish people.

The votes come at a low point in US-Turkish relations. Mr Erdoğan is due to visit the White House to meet Donald Trump in two weeks’ time but it is unclear whether the visit will go ahead.

**** gets real when a genocide gets recognized

It's the Ottoman genocide against the Armenians. I mean then you can also say that Iran once invaded Greece.

The Turks can go shove it. I wish the world would boycott their entire country until they admit it and start changing. Racists. I will never visit them or use a product they created knowingly.

On the plus side, Erdogan will need to take a ten minute break from murdering Kurds to dress-down the US ambassador.

Tell Turkey that. They're the ones taking it personally.

Dear Mr Erdoğan

I don't think the propaganda is working. Even, by an amazing feat never to be repeated, MyBroadband became united in telling you to go f*** yourself.
