TURKISH FOREIGN MINISTER TO ADDRESS MPS ON FRANCE’S ARMENIA BILL ON
17 OCTOBER
Ankara, 13 October: "This is a big shame for France, and it has
betrayed its own values if it has any… [ellipsis as published] It
made this decision, violating all its principles," said Turkish
Parliament Speaker Bulent Arinc.
Regarding the resolution criminalizing denial of the so-called
Armenian genocide allegations adopted by the French parliament
yesterday, Arinc noted that Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul
will brief the MPs on this matter on Tuesday (17 October). "We will
try to pass a resolution that criticizes the decision of the French
national assembly," he pointed out, calling on Turkish people to show
moderate reactions.
