PARIS
The Embassy will also write a letter to the French Education Ministry to express Turkey's uneasiness about a cartoon claiming that Turkey is a country conducting genocide.
The mentioned cartoon was showed to students in a history and geography lesson in a school in the French city of Montpeliard.
A Strasbourg-based Turkish non-governmental organization (NGO), COJEP, has also launched initiatives. The NGO will met the headmaster of the school and expressed Turkish community's uneasiness.
The headmaster said that the cartoon was not in a course or a source book, and noted that copies of the cartoon claimed to be taken from Arab television channels were distributed to students during a lesson and students were asked to comment on the cartoon.
School headmaster said they were sorry about the misunderstanding, and invited COJEP executives to another meeting on Monday.
The law criminalizing denial of Armenian allegations of the incidents of 1915, adopted by the French Parliament but rejected by the Constitutional Council, caused a tension between Paris and Ankara.
France passed a law in 2001 and declared that it officially recognized the Armenian claims regarding the incidents of 1915.
Since then, Armenian allegations are included in the curriculum of French schools, and sometimes serious problems occur in schools where Turkish students are having education.
