Ankara - The Turkish parliament yesterday unanimously passed a motion condemning a pending US Congress resolution recognising accusations that Turks committed genocide against Armenians in 1915.

The House of Representatives' International Relations Committee on Thursday postponed by a week the non-binding resolution urging President Bill Clinton to "characterise the systematic and deliberate annihilation of 1.5 million Armenians as genocide".
