French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier stated, Yerkir Online reports. In his
words, the official acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey is
essential for the EU membership. Turkey's bid for the EU is not the issue of
today and not the issue of the referendum on the adoption of the European
Constitution to be held on May 29, but even if the membership negotiations
open in 15-20 years Turkey cannot joint the EU without acknowledging the
Armenian Genocide', he noted adding that according to the French
