Go figure??
Foreign policy is not now and has never been based on moral principle, although almost everyone likes to claim the moral high ground.(to make the great unwashed feel all virtuous)
Without exception,all relations between nations are on the basis of some kind of quid pro quo.
As contemptuous as I am of Turkey's collective denial of the Armenian Genocide, the French are despicable for using that catastrophe for political gain.
Besides, I need to tell once more that this isn't just an official policy on the behalf of our country's people, the crushing majority of Turks in Turkey do not accept these allegations. Our policies are in accordance with the will of our people. And I wonder how many Frenchmen actually care if this legislation goes through? Only the ones with Armenian roots, and those of Turkish.
