    On May 4, French Senate will discuss a draft law envisaging
    criminalization of the Armenian Genocide denial.

    According to Nouvelle d~RArmenie, the Coordination Council of Armenian
    Organizations of France calls on Armenian community representatives
    to gather in front of the Senate during the discussion of the bill
    to be presented by Serge Lagauche at 2:30 pm Paris time.

    On October 12, 2006, the National Assembly of France adopted a bill on
    criminalization of the Armenian Genocide denial, yet Senate blocked
    its adoption. Socialist Party, who submitted the draft law in the
    lower chamber of the parliament in 2006, intends to submit it to
    Senate discussion to be further ratified by the current higher chamber.
