January 28, 2012 - 13:22 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Political analyst Levon Shirinyan deems possible for
Turkey to boost cooperation with Russia following French Senate's
adoption of the bill criminalizing the Armenian Genocide denial.
Dwelling on Turkish authorities' decision regarding deportation of
illegal migrants including the Armenians, Shirinyan stressed the need
for Armenia to `shape national settlement policy.'
Turkish authorities plan to amend Migration Act that stipulates
deportation of illegal immigrants. Many believe the move to be a
response to French Senate's passage of the Genocide bill.
On January 23, the French Senate passed the bill criminalizing the
Armenian Genocide denial with 127 votes for and 86 against. To be
signed into law within 14 days, the bill will 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.
