Hrant Dink Legislation in Senate in March



Here's some more information:
The resolution, S.Res.65, specifically mentions that Hrant Dink "was prosecuted under Article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code for speaking about the Armenian Genocide," and urges the Turkish government to repeal this anti-free speech law. It will be "marked up" by the Committee on Tuesday, March 6th at 2:15 p.m.
Given the government's pro-Turkey stance, what do you think will be the outcome of this attempt?
