ISESCO denounces French National Assembly's bill regarding Turkey
Rabat, Muharram 28, 1433, Dec 23, 2011, SPA -- The Islamic
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO) denounced
the bill passed by France's National Assembly which would criminalize
any public denial of what the bill calls "the Armenian genocide at the
time of the Ottomans".
In a communiqué released today, ISESCO called for upholding freedom of
expression and of academic research and not imposing restraints on
intellectuals and researchers via such unjust laws as this one which
is incompatible with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
ISESCO expressed its support to the Republic of Turkey against this
selective and racist position and its attending repercussions.
ISESCO also called on OIC Member States to condemn this decision and
stand by the Republic of Turkey, in support of the principles of
Islamic solidarity.
