France: Strong reactions to Cavusoglu’s exhortation to his compatriots “to act against the Armenian diaspora”

The reaction of the Armenian organizations was caused by the urging of the Turkish foreign minister Mevult Cavusoglu to his compatriots living in France“to act against the Armenian diaspora in a more coordinated way.” An exhortation made during Cavusoglu’s recent visit to Strasbourg, where he met at the Turkish consulate with representatives of the Turkish community in France. THE Frank Papajian, co-president of the Coordinating Council of Armenian Organizations of France, stated that with this report the Turkish minister encourages violence against French Armenians.

“We feel threatened by the Turkish minister’s words. We consider his words to be a call for violence and we expect the French government to take all the necessary protective measures,” Papajian said, criticizing the French government for “not reacting because it does not want to displease Turkey.” “The history of relations between the French and Turkish governments in recent years shows that Paris never gives appropriate answers to Ankara’s insults and threats,” Papadzian said, calling on the French government to expel the Turkish ambassador, demand public apology and hold Erdogan responsible in case of attacks on populations by Turkish commandos.
