Turkey’s Ambassadors In Paris & Ottawa Return To Their Posts
ANKARA – Turkey`s ambassadors to France and Canada returned to their
posts on Thursday after having consultations in Turkish capital of
Ankara regarding so-called Armenian genocide allegations.
Turkey`s Ambassador in Paris Osman Koruturk and Ambassador in Ottawa
Aydemir Erman arrived in Ankara at the beginning of this week to have
consultations over recent baseless Armenian genocide allegations in
these two countries.
Koruturk and Erman participated in meetings held at the Turkish
Foreign Ministry, and were received by President Ahmet Necdet Sezer
and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Canadian parliament has adopted a resolution, acknowledging the
Armenian claims, while Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper have
made remarks in which he qualified unfounded Armenian allegations as
“genocide“.
On the other hand, French parliament will debate a bill on May 18th
which makes any denial of the so-called Armenian genocide a crime.
