  • ANKARA: Turkey must recognize Armenian Genocide

    FRENCH SOCIALIST LEADER URGES TURKEY TO RECOGNIZE SO- CALLED ARMENIAN
    GENOCIDE FOR EU MEMBERSHIP

    Saturday June 5, 2004

    French Socialist Party (SP) leader Francois Hollande yesterday said
    that the European Union giving a date to Turkey to begin its accession
    talks should be contingent on Ankara recognizing the so-called Armenian
    genocide. In a joint press conference with Murat Papazyan, the European
    head of Armenia's Tashnak Party, Hollande said that in addition to the
    Copenhagen criteria, Turkey should heed a 1987 European Parliament
    1987 resolution calling for recognition of the so-called genocide,
    withdrawal of Turkish troops from Cyprus and respect for human and
    minority rights. /Milliyet/
