Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's calling Crimea's reunification with Russia ,annexation, is dictated by nostalgia for the Middle Ages, Ekaterina Altabaeva, who represents Sevastopol in Russia's upper house, told Sputnik on Wednesday.

Addressing the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, ERdogan noted the importance of preserving Ukraine's territorial integrity, including the territory of "annexed" Crimea. The Turkish leader also pointed to the need to make more efforts to protect the rights of the Crimean Tatars.

It is known to all that the United States has openly contributed to supporting, funding and arming terrorist organizations, including ISIS and Al-Qaeda, to serve its schemes in Syria, Iraq and other countries of the region.

The Turkish regime, led by President Recepe Tayyib Erdogan, insists on denying the genocide committed by the Ottoman state against the Armenians.

According to the “Armenian Weekly” newspaper pro-Erdogan political groups are trying to bribe US Congress members in a bid to cancel the United States’ recognition of this massacre.

The newspaper said that a newly surfaced Federal Election Commission (FEC) records reveal that Erdogan-allied groups –openly committed to Turkey’s aim of rolling back US recognition of the Armenian Genocide –delivered $235,000 to 82 US federal legislators during the most recent election cycle.

Under Erdogan’s rule, Turkey has dramatically escalated its influence operations in the United States, using paid agents, proxy organizations and often illegal means to overtly and covertly manipulate US policy and policymakers. US law enforcement authorities have, with few exceptions, been slow to investigate and prosecute instances of illegal Turkish interference in the US political system, the newspaper also said.
