WRITTEN QUESTION P-3186/00

by Marie-Arlette Carlotti (PSE) to the Commission

(4 October 2000)

Subject: Negotiations on Turkey(cid:146)s accession to the European Union and acknowledgement of genocide

against Armenians

In its resolution of June 1987 on a political solution to the Armenian question (1), the European Parliament
most notably expressed the belief that (cid:145)the Armenian question and the question of minorities in Turkey
must be resituated within the framework of relations between Turkey and the Community(cid:146) and called on
the Turkish authorities to acknowledge formally that the tragic events of 1915-1917 involving Armenians
living on the territory of the Ottoman Empire constituted genocide within the meaning of the convention
adopted by the UN General Assembly on 9 December 1948.

With Turkey(cid:146)s status as an applicant country having been confirmed by the Helsinki European Council
in December 1999, and with institutional activities and political dialogue within the Association Council
having resumed last April, will the Commission say exactly to what extent the issue of acknowledgement
by the Turkish authorities of the genocide against Armenians features in the negotiations on Turkey(cid:146)s
accession to the European Union?
