  • ANKARA: French Amb. on Armenian Genocide allegations

    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.
