Azerbaijan’s increased hostile attitude adversely affects the country itself, Orinats Yerkir parliamentary group member said.
“Armenian lobby is considered one of the most effective ones in the world. However, Turkey and Azerbaijan have adopted a different stance on Europe. The number of both Turks and Azerbaijanis continues rising in European countries, that are also home to Armenian communities,” Mher Shahgeldyan told a press conference, adding that France currently deems Armenia a close partner, particularly in terms of the bill criminalizing Genocide denial.
Dwelling on Armenian-Turkish protocols, the MP said, “the ball is in Turkey’s field.”
