/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The adoption of the bill penalizing the Armenian
Genocide denial in France is a "great injustice" toward Turkey,
Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Turan Morali told reporters October
11. He remarked that France’s move aroused anxiety in Turkey.

"The step taken by the French government is very primitive. The
adoption of the bill by a country like France arouses regret," Morali
said. The diplomat considers that the recognition of the Armenian
Genocide by France will hamper Turkey’s accession to the EU.

Morali also remarked that the Turkish government welcomes the Azeri
parliament’s stand on the issue.

"Yesterday we spoke to the chairman of the state committee on the
affairs of Azeris living abroad," he said and thanked the Azerbaijani
government for support, reports Trend news agency.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
