    Oct 11 2011

    French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe will pay a visit to Turkey as a
    guest of Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu.

    Juppe's visit is of special importance after remarks made by French
    President Nicolas Sarkozy over the incidents of 1915, Anadolu news
    agency reported.

    During a visit to the Armenian capital Yerevan, Sarkozy urged Ankara
    to recognize the 1915 massacres of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire
    as genocide.

    Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Sarkozy of
    electioneering.

    The French foreign minister will arrive in Turkey on 26 October,
    Anadolu said.

    He is expected to discuss preparations for the G20 Summit which will
    be held in Cannes on 2 and 3 November.

    Juppe and Davutoglu are also expected to discuss the Arab Spring and
    Middle East peace process.

    Turkey's EU accession process and the Cyprus issue are other topics
    on the agenda of the two foreign ministers.
