PanARMENIAN.Net - Recently, Ankara and Paris have been taking steps at
normalizing ties which deteriorated after the French Senate passed the
bill criminalizing Armenian Genocide denial, a political analyst said.
At news conference in Yerevan, Sergey Shakaryants warned against high
expectations for the issue of Genocide denial criminalization to make
it to the immediate agenda of the French parliament.
"Despite confirming plans for a new Genocide bill, French leader
Francois Hollande can go back on his promise, seeing as the
presidential race is over for him," the expert noted.
Commenting on recent visit of U.S. State Secretary to South Caucasus,
the expert noted that Hillary Clinton stressed the importance of
Armenia-Turkey rapprochement.
In this context, the expert slammed Turkey's using Karabakh conflict
settlement as a precondition for normalizing ties with Armenia.
