    TURKISH MINISTER ADVISES FRANCE TO FORGET ABOUT ARMENIAN GENOCIDE AND BOOST EFFORTS IN KARABAKH CONFLICT'S RESOLUTION

    The efforts of Russia and France to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict within the OSCE Minsk Group have not yielded any results,
    that is why Turkey hopes that France will strengthen its role in
    the resolution of the conflict, Turkish minister for EU Affairs
    Egemen Bagis said in an interview with French La Croix newspaper,
    the Turkish Internethavadis website reported on Wednesday.

    "Instead of discussing Armenian genocide France should take up the
    settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and think about the fate
    of Azerbaijani refugees who were left without shelter as a result of
    Armenian aggression," Bagis said.

    The minister also notes that Turkey does not abandon its history and
    once again urged Armenia to establish a commission to investigate
    the events of 1915.

    "Turkey has repeatedly called on Armenia to open archives and to
    begin historical investigation. We agree to France's participation
    in these investigations," Bagis said. Since 1992 the OSCE Minsk
    Group represented by co-chairs from Russia, U.S. and France has been
    mediating in resolution of the conflict unleashed by Azerbaijan in
    1988. At present the peace process is based on the Madrid Principles
    suggested by the OSCE MG in 2007 in Madrid and renovated in 2009.
