The relations between Turkey and Russia may become closer following US President Joe Biden’s recognition of the Armenian genocide in the Ottoman Empire, a Turkish politician told TASS on Saturday.
"After his [Biden’s] statement, relations between Turkey and Russia will definitely become closer," said Dogu Perincek, who chairs the Vatan (Homeland) party. "Biden’s statement is an onslaught on Turkey, on Asia, on Russia and China."
"His statement is not related to human rights, and this event cannot be assessed within the framework of the historical discussion. Biden has advanced into action, beginning with Turkey so that later he could take measures against Russia and China," the Turkish politician continued.

NACH BIDEN-STATEMENT: "Tiefe Wunde" - Türkei weist Erklärung "in schärfster Form" zurück
Trotz Warnungen der Türkei hat US-Präsident Joe Biden die Massaker an den Armeniern im Osmanischen Reich während des Ersten Weltkrieges als Völkermord anerkannt und damit für Missstimmung in Ankara gesorgt.
Das türkische Außenministerium wies die Erklärung Bidens «in schärfster Form» zurück. Sie verzerre «historische Fakten», und reiße eine tiefe Wunde, die das gegenseitige Vertrauen und die Freundschaft der beiden Länder untergrabe. Noch am Samstagabend war der US-Botschafter in Ankara in das türkische Außenministerium einbestellt worden.
