PARIS – The French Socialist who played a crucial role in banning
the Turkish approach regarding the Armenian issue in France, called
the state authorities to prevent the civil demonstrations in Lyon.

Rene Rouquet argued that the French State has the right to ban such
demonstrations. The Turkish people and some French protest the Armenian
bill which makes crime rejecting the Armenian claims.

Dr. Nilgun Gulcan, Turkish EU expert, said "the French socialists
are really strange socialists. Theye are against freedom of speech
and demonstrations. If they oppose the elections tomorrow, it will
not make me surprised".
