France must strengthen role in resolving Nagorno-Karabakh conflict - Turkey

The efforts of Russia and France to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict within the OSCE Minsk Group have not yielded any results, which is why Turkey hopes that France will strengthen its role in the resolution of the conflict, Turkish minister for EU Affairs Egemen Bagis said in an interview with French La Croix newspaper, the Turkish Internethavadis website reported on Wednesday, Trend informs.

"Instead of discussing the so-called "Armenian genocide" France should take up the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and think about the fate of Azerbaijani refugees who were left without shelter as a result of Armenian aggression," Bagis said.
