“It’s very important for me to be in Armenia now. You know that when I was in Turkey, I provoked talks there after pointing out to the fact that if the Turks are so sensitive to the genocides, then why don’t they talk about the Genocide committed against the Armenians. And I’m very happy that France acknowledged the [Armenian] Genocide. I’d like all the countries of the world to follow suit, but, unfortunately, the world is ruled by other laws. ”
