    CHIRAC URGES TURKEY TO RECOGNIZE 1915 GENOCIDE OF ARMENIANS

    Interfax Russia
    Sept 30 2006

    YEREVAN. Sept 30 (Interfax) - Turkey should admit the errors of
    the past, including the 1915 genocide of Armenians, if it wants to
    accede to the European Union, French President Jacques Chirac said
    at a press conference during a state visit to Armenia on Saturday.

    "I believe that any country, as long as it develops, also confesses
    to mistakes it made in the past, and I think Turkey should seriously
    think about this issue," Chirac said.

    Chirac referred to the example of Germany, which has not lost its
    greatness by admitting the Holocaust but, on the contrary, other
    nations have started to trust it more.
