    Turkish Premier has once more criticized France for a bill
    criminalizing the denial of Armenian Genocide.

    No one must pursue policy of exploiting Turkey for electoral gains -
    it is unacceptable. France is not considering its own role in the 1915
    events - its provocations and logistical support to gangs, the Turkish
    premier said in a televised addressed to the nation.
    Recep Erdogan called for opening archives and stated Turkey is against
    distorting historical facts.

    Depending on France moves with respect to the Armenian Genocide bill,
    Turkey will consistently implement retaliatory measures. `We are not
    going to conceal anything. We are not against revealing historical
    facts, but we are against distorting history,' Erdogan said.
