/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "France supports Turkey's candidacy for accession
to the EU. Turkey approaching European norms will have an undisputed
stabilizing effect in the region as a whole. Everyone will benefit
from it, first of all Armenia," French Ambassador to Armenia Henry
Cuny stated in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. He said the EU is
a club with clear, detailed rules, which are compulsory for everyone
without exceptions. "Democracy, freedom of expression of opinions,
beliefs, including religious ones, human rights, including national
minority rights, lifting blockades of borders, liberalization of
economy, establishment of normal relations with neighbors are the
core of that club," Henry Cuny remarked.
As of demonstrations against establishment of monuments to Armenian
Genocide victims in some French towns lately, the diplomat called these
"unacceptable" and "anachronistic."
"While one of Turkish TV channels showed Ararat film on the events in
1915 with the consent of 71% of the audience, demonstrations denying
the Armenian Genocide were held in France. These demonstrations are not
in line with the evolution of the Turkish mentality," he underscored.
