PACE head says French bill cannot be implemented.
The president of Parliamentary Assembly of Council of Europe (PACE)
said on Friday that France Senate might pass the resolution
criminalizing denial of Armenian allegations regarding the incidents
of 1915, but the law could not be implemented.
Mevlut Cavusoglu said the resolution might be passed, however in his
opinion, it was not the end of the world.
"This law cannot be implemented in the first place," Cavusoglu told AA
correspondent in Ankara.
Cavusoglu said the Senate would most probably adopt the resolution,
but noted that PACE-member French lawmakers were against the
resolution.
"French lawmakers do not take this resolution as serious," he said.
Cavusoglu said French President Nicolas Sarkozy backed the resolution
after Turkey became more popular in North African countries, which
were once under influence of France.
