Despite the fact that a law criminalizing denial of so-called "Armenian
genocide" was passed by the Senate of France, it does not mean the
full completion of the adoption of this law, the head of the Center
of Political Innovations and Technologies, a political scientist
Mubariz Ahmedoglu said at a briefing held in the conference hall of
Trend on Tuesday.
Ahmedoglu said, a group of French senators, who opposes the law
appealed to the Constitutional Council, using the possibilities
offered by the French law.
"Thus, the question of the "Armenian genocide" has again become
a subject of political games. Armenian anti-Turkish position has
repeatedly transformed them and their feelings, which they consider
sacred, to instrument in the hands of other countries. Now, if this
law is adopted, the repetition of similar initiatives will be unlikely
in the near future, as the parliamentary and presidential elections
will soon begin," Ahmedoglu said.
"Sarkozy is a weak leader, and he needs such a small groups in order
not to lose the election," Ahmedoglu said.
Previously on January 23, after an eight-hour debate, the French
senate adopted the bill. Some 127 senators voted in favour, while 86
voted against.
The bill demands a years imprisonment and a fine of ~@45,000 for
denying the so-called "genocide."
Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that the predecessor of the
Turkey - Ottoman Empire had committed the 1915 genocide against the
Armenians living in Anadolu and have achieved recognition of the
"Armenian Genocide" by the parliaments of several countries.
