From a long time this issue has been source of conflict between Turkey and France.

According to Turkish government three hundred thousand of Armenians citizen were killed, but Armenian and French government says that more than 1.5 million Armenian citizens were killed in the struggle during First World War.

The Turkish government in a press release warned French government that Armenian Genocide Law bill may harm relationship between Turkey and France on international level.

Turkey's president Abdullah Gul said hoped that French government will reconsider their decision so that, friendship between two countries remain strong.
