Turkish Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Feridun Sinirlioglu , currently on a visit to Washington, is set for a series of meetings with officials at the US State Department and the National Security Council. Feridun Sinirlioglu will meet US Deputy Secretary of State James Steinberg and Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Philip Gordon. As the Turkish Today's Zaman newspaper wrote, during the meetings the Turkish diplomat will focus on the recent developments in the Caucasus and the Balkans.
Earlier, Feridun Sinirlioglu visited Switzerland, where he expressed Turkey's fears over the decision of the Armenian Constitutional Court on Armenian-Turkish Protocols .
The visit of the Turkish diplomat came shortly after Rep. Howard Berman of California, the Democratic chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, said last week that he intended to call a committee vote on March 4 on the Armenian Genocide Resolution.
Turkish Foreign Ministry Undersecretary is expected to express Ankara's concerns over the Armenian Genocide resolution 252 to the American side.
