With Armenian Genocide bill France reminded where cradle of democracy is

PanARMENIAN.Net - "There are no 'good uncles' anywhere, neither in U.S.A. nor in Russia and the EU. Everything is being done proceeding from own interests. But the "European family" has an existing structure of values. When the union step aside from it, it loses," Chairman of "European Integration" NGO political scientist Karen Bekarian said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net He reminded that in due time there were two reports on Armenia: one of Ezhi Yaskernia and the other of David Atkinson, they both categorically contradicted to each other. "When such things happen society stops to rely on them. In this regard it is very instructive the example of France, which by adopting the bill one more time reminded the world where the cradle of democracy is," Bekarian said. He also stressed that the Armenian Genocide issue is touched when a certain country wants to push forward its interests and it is not very good for Armenia. "But if we want our interests to be heard and taken into account too we must clearly fulfill our obligations. As to the resolution introduced in the U.S. Congress, it is just another way to pressure on Turkey, and in this regard the United States is the worst example. I do not know how all this will finish, may be the Congress will adopt the resolution. But I'd like to underline that U.S.A. is not a "strategic"partner for Turkey, as many people say, but Russia," noticed the Armenian political scientist.
