Armenia
YEREVAN. - Adoption by the Commission on constitutional law,
legislation and the overall management of the French National Assembly
regarding the bill on Genocide denial punishment recognized by law,
can be viewed from a symbolic point of view to a certain extent, head
of the Armenian branch of the Institute of CIS countries Aleksander
Markarov told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
"We may state again on symbolism of politics. As the bill at the
French Parliament was adopted just the time when Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan was in Marseille," the political scientist said adding
that the bill was expected to be adopted.
According to the expert, there is no need to search for another
sub-context on the mutual relations between the two states. The
adoption of the bill proves the unity character of the relations.
Markarov believes that the bill will receive necessary support in
the Senate to be in power and later signed by the President.
Armenian News-NEWS.am earlier reported that French National Assembly
adopted the bill by Valerie Boyer on transposition of community right
to combat against racism and to challenge the punishment arguing the
Armenian Genocide.
The bill, elaborated by the Commission, intends punishment for arguing
the Genocide adopted by the law.
