/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `The European Union Turkey aspires to join should not
participate in the debate called to qualify the mass slaughter of Armenians
a Genocide; the solution of the problem should be left to Turks and
Armenians,' stated EU President, Luxembourg Prime Minister Jean-Claude
Juncker. In an interview with Le Soir Belgian newspaper Juncker noted that
`the issue in question incites Armenians and Turks against each other.'
`Turkish PM Erdogan has proposed to form a multinational commission. Let us
leave this issue to Turks and Armenians, who carry this heavy burden of the
history. I do not think we are able to do anything in this process, when the
Turkish Government stated for the first time the problem should be studied,'
he stated. As reported by the source, Jean-Claude Juncker condemned the law
submitted for ratification of the Belgian Senate and providing for criminal
responsibility for denial of the Armenian Genocide. `Belgium sets a bad
example,' the EU President stated, reported Regnum news agency.
