/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Blackmail of European countries, first of all France,
by Turkey is very strong, Armenian Vice-Speaker Vahan Hovhannisyan
stated at a news conference in Yerevan, when commenting on the
threats by Turkey against the French Parliament against the possible
adoption of the law criminalizing denial of the Armenian Genocide. In
his words, EU member states are well aware what awaits for them in
case that country joins the EU. "Turkey is more dangerous to Europe,
than Croatia or Bulgaria. The European Constitution was not adopted
in Holland and France just due to these countries being afraid of
Turkish presence. However, Turkey has no money to pursue its policy
thus it resorts to blackmail," Hovhannisyan remarked.

As for the statement of French Minister of the Interior Nicolas Sarkozy
that Turkey’s place is not in the EU, the Vice-Speaker noted that he
had expressed the viewpoint of the majority of France’s population.

"He is a very popular politician and an obvious presidential
hopeful. He speaks on behalf of his constituents and their number is
enough not to admit Turkey to the EU," Hovhannisyan.
