FRENCH AMBASSADOR ON SO-CALLED ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ALLEGATIONS
ANKARA - ``I think that any one with common sense can see that I have
no intention to intimidate anything between Turkey and France,`` said
French Ambassador to Turkey Paul Poudade.
Answering questions of reporters, Poudade indicated, ``they tried to
derive a sensational meaning from my words, but it is not so. What I
said was so clear. Those who read my remarks can understand what I
mean.``
Poudade said that Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan wanted to express
his concerns during his meeting with executives of French companies
investing in Turkey.
``My duty is to convey these concerns and sensitivities to the other
party,`` he noted.
Poudade indicated that PM Erdogan is in fact trying to preserve
friendly relations between Turkey and France. ``This is everybody`s
aim,`` he added.
