ANKARA - "Both the inventor and perpetrator of genocide claims are
Western countries. They inject their own crimes in us and want us
to claim responsibility for those crimes," the Motherland Party
(ANAP) leader Erkan Mumcu said when addressing his party group in
the parliament on Tuesday.
Prior to his speech, Mumcu observed a minute of silence in the memory
of Turkish citizens massacred by Armenians (during WWI).
"The West should go first through a process to get rid of 'Turk
complex'. Otherwise, their enmity towards Turkey will not end. The
history of the West is hypocritical," he said.
ANAVATAN leader Mumcu underscored that the target of France which
prepares to adopt a draft law (that makes any denial of so-called
Armenian genocide a crime) is to push its hinterland towards east
of Turkey."
On the other hand, Mumcu defended that Turkey was weak on foreign
policy, indicating that Ankara failed to take initiatives on issues
concerning its own fate.
