Turkey expressed its expectation from France to make a contribution in discussing Turkish-Armenian controversy through dialogue regarding 1915 incidents.
Turkish Foreign Ministry stated on Saturday that initiatives to bring penal sanction force in a law on 1915 incidents --which had been adopted in France in 2001 and gave credit to only one party's views-- recurred especially during electoral periods in France.
A draft law which was adopted at a commission in French Parliament on December 7, 2011 was the recent example of those initiatives, said the ministry, stressing that French administration knew the sensitivity of this matter for Turkey.
We hope French administration will not take irreparable steps, while Turkey and France have entered a stable period during which the two countries can boost cooperation opportunities on bilateral and international levels, said the ministry.
