"Mr President-in-Office, I cannot say your answer is satisfactory. If the Council were truly concerned about human rights one would have expected a more specific answer. We are talking here about two very ancient peoples who have been subjected to systematic genocide by the Turkish regime, a genocide perhaps not so impressive as in Armenia, but just as effective. Several thousand people have become refugees or immigrants to the European Union and only a few tens of thousands remain in the area where they have lived since ancient times. I would like to ask whether you can be more specific. Of course, your reference to the Treaty of Lausanne is apt, but beyond that, the European Union also has a responsibility to stress certain things to the Turkish regime concerning the need to respect human rights, whether they stem from the Treaty of Lausanne or in a broader sense. Is the Council going to take any specific action along those lines?"@en1
