Turkey and Armenia Pave Way for Historic Accords - WSJ.com http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1238...Tabs%3Darticle

Ключивые моменты:
Announcement of a Turkish-Armenian pact is also being influenced by Mr. Obama's campaign promise to support a Congressional resolution that would recognize as genocide the Ottoman Empire's 1915 killing of up to 1.5 million Armenians in what is now central and eastern Turkey. Turkey fiercely denies the killings were genocide. The White House traditionally makes a statement to mark Armenian Remembrance Day on April 24.

If the U.S. proceeds with the genocide resolution, "I cannot imagine any Turkish government opening the Armenian border," said Özgür Ünlühisarcikli, director of the Ankara office of the German Marshall Fund of the United States, a think tank.

One date under discussion for signing the deal with Armenia, diplomats say, is April 16. But Mr. Ünlühisarcikli said he believes Turkey and Armenia won't be ready to sign the deal before April 24, and Turkey instead will "signal" its commitment to reopen the borders in the hope that will be enough for Washington.
