Having signed a decree declaring April 24 the day of memory of the so-called "Armenian genocide", French President Emmanuel Macron has grossly violated international law, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu tweeted, Trend reports.

He said that before making such a decision, Macron should have turned to the dark moments of the history of his own country.

On April 10, French President Emmanuel Macron signed a decree declaring April 24 as the national day of memory of the so-called "Armenian genocide".
