In addition, there is a reaction against the bill from within France. Collaborating with these circles, we will explain to Sarkozy\u2019s authorities that these problems must be solved by the assistance of historians,\u201d Erdogan said, Turkish Dunyabulteni website informs.<\/p>\n<p>In the Turkish PM\u2019s words, the companies which have made investments in Turkey are concerned over this matter, too. \u201cWe will meet with French businessmen and remind the Senate about our sensitivity toward this problem. This is our shared problem. If the process continues, it could cause serious problems,\u201d Recep Tayyip Erdogan added.<\/p>\n<p>To note, the French National Assembly passed, on December 22, the bill that criminalizes the denial of genocides. But the bill still needs to be approved by the French Senate to become a law. The bill sets a one-year prison sentence plus a 45-thousand-Euro fine for anyone who denies genocides. And in reprisal to the passage of this bill, Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced Turkey\u2019s eight-point sanctions against France. Also, Erdogan accused French President Nicolas Sarkozy of \u201cprovoking Islamophobia\u201d for election purposes, and accused France of committing genocide against the Algerians.<\/p>\n<p>via Turkey will continue to impose its 8-point sanctions against France \u2013 Turkish PM | Armenia News &#8211; NEWS.am.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a joint press conference with his Norwegian counterpart Jens Stoltenberg, Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan reflected on regional issues, with the French National Assembly\u2019s passing of the bill that criminalizes the denial of genocides, including the Armenian Genocide.
