    Turkish ambassador to return to Paris to fight genocide bill
    Jan 4, 2012, 10:32 GMT


    Paris - Turkey's ambassador to France will return to Paris in the
    coming days to lobby the French Senate against the adoption of a bill
    making it a crime to deny that Armenians suffered genocide, the
    Turkish embassy in Paris confirmed Wednesday.

    'He will come back in four or five days time,' embassy spokesman Engin
    Solakoglu told dpa. 'He will try stop this bill being adopted by the
    Senate.'

    Solakoglu said Turkey, which recalled its ambassador on December 22
    after the lower house of the French parliament adopted the bill, might
    further downgrade its ties with France if the Senate passed the bill
    and made it into law.
