YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 29, ARMENPRESS: The decision of the Constitutional
Council of France was a great disappointment not only for French
Armenians but French people fighting for human rights as well, MP from
the National Assembly of France Valerie Boyer wrote in her statement.
"Like any decision of the Constitutional Council, this one as well is
based on the comment of the Constitution but even if it is impossible
to appeal this decision, it must be considered very disputable,"
Boyer said, stressing that many Constitution experts consider this
bill constitutional but unfortunately their voice was not heard.
The French MP also stresses that the inequality France displays toward
the Holocaust and the Armenian Genocide is inadmissible.
In her opinion the Constitution is being commented with discrimination,
thus a new bill should be drafted like President Sarkozy has
assigned. "This legislative process is very crucial for our country
and I am proud that I have participated in it in spite of pressures
I have been subjected to," Boyer stressed.
The MP said the decision of the Constitutional Council is another
impediment which will force to focus efforts for continuing the fight.
"The pressures of a foreign state harm the greatness of France. As
to me, I will continue the fight till the end," Valerie Boyer stressed.
