French presidential candidates Nicolas Sarkozy and Francois Hollande
attended the commemoration of the 97th anniversary of the Armenian
genocide in Paris on Tuesday. The candidates, however, didn't meet
one another during the event.
The first to arrive up to 19h of Canada, the Socialist candidate
reiterated his commitment to pass a law criminalizing denial of the
genocide of 1915 whatever the pressures.
I will take all necessary steps for passage of the bill. The Armenian
history will never be forgotten as it will never be disputed," he said.
Sarkozy, too, pledged to adopt a bill penalizing the Armenian Genocide
denial.
"As head of state, I was forced to bow to the decision of the
Constitutional Council but not in front of my conviction," the
incumbent President said, promising new text, which will be presented
in June.
