Resolution Genocide

After much controversy, debate, and uncertainty, the United States House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee has approved a resolution naming the WWI violence against Armenians a Genocide. Whether or not this resolution will pass in the House is still in question; but the first steps have been taken to naming this past atrocity in a rightful way. If this resolution is passed, it can be sure that tensions between the US and Turkey will rise, and whether or not the US will be able to maintain their bases within Turkeys' boarders is uncertain.
