PanARMENIAN.Net - The leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia
(LDPR) commented on French National Assembly's adoption of a bill
penalizing Armenian Genocide denial.
"LDPR has repeatedly urged for Genocide recognition. We welcome
French MPs' decision to pass the Genocide bill. Turning a blind eye
to 1,5 million people who've fallen victim to 1915 massacres would
be blasphemous, " Vladimir Zhirinovsky stressed.
"1915's tragedy is the darkest page in the history of humanity. No
European or Asian county has ever perpetrated such a cruel elimination
of people. With the whole world promoting the principles of democracy,
the international community must recognize the Armenian Genocide,"
LDPR leader said.
"Turkey is obligated to recognize the crime, returning Armenia's
original lands," LDPR website quoted Zhirinovsky as saying.
