`It is with great surprise and concern that we followed the
development of the French Parliament's lower house and the ensuing
vote regarding the legislation to make denial of the so-called
`Armenian genocide' illegal in France,' a statement issued by the
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry reads.
Unfortunately, Armenia and its Diaspora continue to play a very
destructive role in the ongoing developments in the region, instead
of contributing to peace and stability With full understanding that
this initiative needs to be yet ratified by the Senate, we urge the
French Parliament to apply a more careful, impartial, and balanced
approach, the document states.
Taking note of the French Government's position of disagreement with
this legislative act, we are hopeful that the French Senate will
obstruct this negative development in full compliance with
international community's proclaimed interest in re-establishment of
security, stability and mutual confidence climate in this
strategically important region of Europe, the statement stressed.
