CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT OF FRANCE: "TURKEY’S MEMBERSHIP TO EU TO
ASSIST RECOGNITION OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE"
LONDON, MARCH 27, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. "Turkey’s membership
to the European Union will help democrates of that country to
implement reforms and overcome denial in a state which disproves the
Armenian Genocide. Membership of Ankara to the EU will assist
recognition of the Armenian Genocide." Segolene Royal, the French
Socialist Party’s candidate for the President wrote about it in her
new book from which Financial Times reprinted parts in its March 26
issue.
According to the newspaper, in the past Royal did not clearly express
her attitude towards the possible membership of Turkey, saying that
her position "is the same as the French people has."
