ANKARA, JANUARY 19, ARMENPRESS: Turkish Parliament's Foreign Relations
Committee has circulated a notification with the claim of rejecting
the Bill Criminalizing Armenian Genocide Denial at the Senate. In the
notification Turkey threats that if the Senate ratifies the Armenian
Bill, the country will take relevant steps.
The notification addressed to France has been prepared in the Turkish
Parliament's Foreign Relations Committee on the basis of the speeches
of notorious historian Yusuf Halachoglu and a member of Turkish
ruling Justice and Development Party, Armenpress reports citing the
Turkish TRT.
The text prepared by the committee has not been signed only by Nazmi
Gyur, member of the only Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party at the
Turkish parliament.
In the notification sent to the French Senate the Turkish Parliament's
Foreign Relations Committee warns that if the bill is ratified "Turkey
will have to take relevant steps in the issue of Turkish-French
relations, the cooperation ties between Turkey and France will be
broken, and Ankara will reconsider the further official relations
with Paris."
