Former speaker of U.S. House of Representatives, the US Congress minority leader Nancy Pelosi plans to meet with the members of the Turkish Diaspora in the near future. It is the first time Pelosi agreed to the meeting.

“Although we don’t expect her to change her opinion on certain issues right away, this is a very important and even a historical meeting for our Diasporas”, Mustafa Yilmaz, Turkish Diaspora representative, told Azerbaijani APA news agency.

Nancy Pelosi is an advocate of the official recognition of the Armenian Genocide by U.S.

However, this April Pelosi refused to put the Armenian Genocide Resolution, H.Res.252, on the congressional agenda.
