EAFJD: EU should Adopt Tougher Resolution on Turkey
The European Armenian Federation (EAFJD) says that European Union Foreign Ministers' decision to partially freeze the negotiations with Turkey should be tougher. "The Armenian lobby organization is sure that Turkey must be punished both for Human Rights violations, and for treatment with ethnic minority groups, blockade of Armenian-Turkish border and the Armenian Genocide denial," says the statement, provided by AP. In her part, the head of European Armenian Federation Hilda Tchoboyan underlined that EU member states' decision complicated the relations with Turkey, reports RFL/RL.
