    MEMORANDUM October 28, 2019 Subject: “Armenian Genocide” Issue Background and Pending House and Senate Resolutions (H.Res. 296 and S.Res. 150) From: Jim Zanotti, Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs, [email protected], 7-1441 Clayton Thomas, Analyst in Middle Eastern Affairs, [email protected], 7-2719 This memorandum was prepared to enable distribution to more than one congressional office. This memorandum provides information and analysis on the “Armenian Genocide” issue,1 stated briefly; past congressional and state, presidential, and international actions on the issue; non-binding resolutions pending in the House and Senate (H.Res. 296 and S.Res. 150) on the issue; and possible effects from passing a resolution, including on U.S.-Turkey relations. H.Res. 296 may come to a vote in the House during the week of October 28.2 Much of the information in this memorandum comes directly from CRS Report R41368, Turkey: Background and U.S. Relations, by Jim Zanotti and Clayton Thomas. For context on current U.S.-Turkey relations, see CRS Report R44000, Turkey: Background, U.S. Relations, and Sanctions In Brief, by Jim Zanotti and Clayton Thomas. From 1915 to 1923, hundreds of thousands of Armenians died as a result of actions of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey’s predecessor state). U.S. and international characterizations of these events influence Turkey’s domestic and foreign policy, given strong Turkish objections to describing the events as genocide,3 and are in turn influenced by developments in Turkey-Armenia relations. Turkey and Armenia initially agreed in 2009 on a set of joint protocols to normalize relations, but the process stalled shortly thereafter and there has been little or no momentum toward restarting it.4 Past Congressional and State, Presidential, and International Actions Congress has considered how to characterize the events of 1915-1923 on a number of occasions.
