    CONGRESS OF EUROPEAN AZERBAIJANIS ADDRESSES FRENCH PRESIDENT

    APA

    Azerbaijan

    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".
