Armenian National Committee (ANC) met with the Dutch ambassador to
Lebanon G.J. van Epen on Wednesday to protest the December 17 summit
that will decide whether to launch European Union entry talks with

the foreign ministry of his country. In the letter, the ANC outlined
issues that clearly reveal Turkey’s inability to adhere to European
norms and standards. The meeting took place at the Royal Netherlands
Embassy of Lebanon.
