YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 6, ARMENPRESS: The famous French Armenian singer Charles Aznavour did not give any interview to Posta news agency. Armenpress reports that the legendary singer made this note in his official Facebook profile. “I did not give any interview to Posta. I am hurt by this deceit”, - said Aznavour in his page.
The Turkish Posta spread an “interview”, in which the Armenian French chansonier stated that “his mother is Turkish”. Besides, clear pro-Turkish statements were made in the “interview”. For example, it was said that Aznavour loves Turks and being the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Armenia to Switzerland and UN, Charles Aznavour leads an independent policy and is not subject to the Armenian authorities. Besides, it was reported that Aznavour was awarded.
The information spread by the Turkish Posta news agency claiming that the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Armenia to Switzerland Charles Aznavour gave an interview to a Turkish journalist does not correspond to reality. As reports Armenpress, this information, which was circulating in the Turkish media and was also widely discussed in Armenia, was dismissed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia. “Charles Aznavour did not give interview to any Turkish newspaper and he did not accept an award,” the Spokesperson of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia Tigran Balayan stated on Twitter.
