Vladimir Zhirinovsky, Leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia
faction in the State Duma, has commented on the developments around
the bill criminalizing the Armenian Genocide denial.
Zhirinovsky's statement posted on the official website of the party
says: " LDPR has been stressing the necessity of recognizing the
Armenian genocide yet long ago. We welcome the decision of the French
parliamentarians. Around half a million of people fell victims to
the tragic incidents of 1915, and it is aweless closing eyes on that."
He says that Turkey ought to recognize that crime. Armenia's original
lands should be return to it. "The incidents of 1915 was the most
terrible page in the human history. There had been no such vicious
killings in any other European or Asian country. Almost a century
ago people were killed openly for their nationality. Now when the
world speaks of democracy the entire world community must recognize
the Armenian genocide," Zhirinovsky says.
On December 22, 2011, French National Assembly passed a bill
criminalizing public denial of the Armenian Genocide. If passed
and signed into law by the Senate, the bill would impose a 45,000
euro fine and a year in prison for anyone in France who denies this
crime against humanity committed by the Ottoman Empire. Turkish Prime
Minister recalled the Turkish ambassador to France and threatens with
breach of all military and economic projects with France.
