Baku - APA. The Congress of European Azerbaijanis addressed French
President Nicolas Sarkozy, press service of the Azerbaijan's State
Committee on Work with Diaspora told APA.
The Congress said the French National Assembly's decision to
criminalize the denial of made-up "Armenian genocide" was a violation
of freedom of speech and expression. "This law puts an end to the
French people's freedom of speech and expression. It tramples the
principles of France.
We, the Congress of European Azerbaijanis, strongly condemn the
adoption of this law and express protest against it. This law
falsifies the history, seeds hate, enmity and feelings of revenge
between the peoples and seriously damages understanding and stability
in the world. This law will be useful neither for Armenia, nor Turkey,
nor Azerbaijan. It will not bring peace to the Caucasus".
The authors reminded to the French president about the occupation
and genocide occurred 20 years ago before the eyes of the world and
which have witnesses and facts. "Incumbent president of Armenia Serzh
Sargsyan participated in the massacre against the peaceful population
of Khojlay at night from February 25 to 26, 1992. Armenia occupied
20 percent of Azerbaijani territories and more than one million
Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons. Though
the activity of the OSCE Minsk Group, France is the co-chair of
this group, for peaceful solution to the conflict, the occupation
has not been ended and the murderers have not been punished yet. We,
the Congress of European Azerbaijanis, demand France, the member of
the OSCE Minsk Group, to secure justice for Khojaly. Peace can not
be established on the basis of injustice and rightlessness".
