Director of the Center for Sociological Analysis and Intervention (Centre d'Analyses et d'Interventions Sociologique or CADIS), Michel Wieviorka said that the French media is concerned about normalization of the Armenian-Turkish rapprochement process, which is hampered by the Karabakh problem.

He hailed Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s decision to freeze the process but not sever it, showing the entire world that Armenia is willing to normalize relations, unlike Turkey.

“Armenia has powerful supporters in France – the Diaspora. Thanks to it, French media can receive truthful information, what cannot be said about the Turkish community,” Wieviorka said.

Asked about the Karabakh process, he noted that France is well aware of the history of the conflict.
