French Senator Boyer: The European Union turns a blind eye to Turkey's crimes
French Senator Valerie Boyer said that the lack of reaction
from the European Union to Turkey's interventions, as happened in the
Nagorno-Karabakh crisis, is a lack of foresight in light of Ankara’s crimes.
Boyer stressed that the European Union must be strict with
every country that wants to enter its membership.
During the "Human Rights: Islamists Weapon to
Manipulate Democracy" symposium organized by the Center for Middle East
Studies in Paris, Boyer said that what binds people in France and Europe is the
rule of law.
She added that the state is subject to some difficulties due
to the rule of law, which is the will of the legislator, and there is
oversight.
Boyer explained that there is bilateral monitoring of all
legislation in France, and that is why we always have to support democracy and
human rights and create a balance.
The seminar is titled "Human Rights: Islamists' Weapon
in Democracy Abuse".
It is held against the background of exploitation by
Islamists of human rights to serve their own agendas.
The seminar is moderated by CEMO Executive Director Ahmed
Youssef. Other speakers include French Senator Valerie Bouillier, and French
writers Yves Thréard and Roland Lombardi.
