LONDON, MARCH 2O, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. Valery Giscard
d’Estaing, the former President of France stated in the interview
given to the Newsweek magazine on the occasion of the 50th anniversary
of foundation of the European Union that Turkey can not become a
European Union member. "Turkey has not been a European country, and it
is meaningless to expect that Europe will accept Turkey’s membership
to the EU as it will be the poorest and most densely populated state
of the Union," the former President of France mentioned according to
the Turkish Daily News.
