YEREVAN, AUGUST 29, ARMENPRESS: French ambassador to Ankara Laurent
Bili has declared that the including of the topic on Armenian Genocide
in French school textbooks is not surprise.
Armenpress reports that during the talk with Turkish "Huriyet" the
ambassador said that a special committee of Ministry of Education
is occupied with school textbooks and nobody can intervene in such
issues. "Armenian Genocide has been recognized in France in state
level and the including of above-mentioned theme is not surprise"
summarized Bili.
Some days ago such answer to the question of "Huriyet" reporter gave
President of France Francois Hollande. During the annual meeting with
ambassadors accredited in France Hollande said that with such issues
is occupied only the special committee.
The fact of presenting Armenian Genocide in French school textbooks
of history and geography has created a flurry in Turkey. Minister for
European Union Affairs and Chief Negotiator of Turkey Egemen Bagis and
Turkish ambassador to France have already contradicted to that fact.
