It took over a century for the superpower that is the US to join the countries that fulfiled their duty toward historical memory and decided without the cynicism of realpolitik.
The US House of Representatives did not consider the consequences on US-Turkey relations even though relations are at a low point and are determined by the whims of two unpredictable and megalomaniacal leaders – Trump and Erdogan.
