    PRESIDENT SARKOZY TRIES TO RESTORE RELATIONS WITH FRENCH ARMENIANS - TURKISH DAILY

    ISTANBUL. - With his upcoming visit to Armenia and attendance
    to the concert in Paris devoted to 20th anniversary of Armenia's
    independence, French President Nicolas Sarkozy went on the attack in
    order to restore his deteriorated relations with French Armenians,
    Turkey's Hurriyet daily writes.

    Sarkozy had obstructed the French Senate from passing a bill on
    holding to criminal account those who deny the Armenian Genocide,
    and, subsequently, relations with French Armenians worsened, the
    Turkish daily notes.

    "Sarkozy went on the attack to restore relations with the [Armenian]
    Diaspora, but, at the same time, without spoiling relations with
    Turkey. In the Paris concert, devoted to 20th anniversary of Armenia's
    independence and with performance by Charles Aznavour, Sarkozy sat
    beside Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan," Hurriyet writes, reminding
    that the approximately 500-thousand-strong Armenian Diaspora living in
    France had stated that it will support socialist Francois Hollande's
    nomination in the presidential elections.
