Armenian News-NEWS.am wished to hear the reaction of the parents of
little Sarkozy, with respect to the French Constitutional Council's
deeming unconstitutional the bill that criminalizes the denial of
genocides-including the Armenian Genocide.
In response to our reporter's question as to whether now they have
regretted calling their newborn after the French President, little
Sarkozy's grandfather, Petros Avetisyan, said: "Not at all, it [the
name] will remain as it is! We have not regretted it at all. Everyone
greatly adores our decision."
He noted that they affectionately call the little one "Sarkozik."
In her turn, the baby's mother, Nara Avetisyan, added that they have
gotten used to this name and it sounds very good, and therefore they
have not regretted their decision. She also informed that they were
motivated by patriotism when they named the baby as such.
As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, a baby boy was born on
January 25 at the maternity hospital of Armenia's Gyumri city. And in
honor of the French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the newborn was named
Sarkozy, Gyumri Maternity Hospital's Director Armen Isahakyan told. He
also informed that the parents themselves had decided to name the child
Sarkozy, since they were very moved by the French Senate's passing
of the bill that criminalizes the denial of genocides-including the
Armenian Genocide-and therefore the parents wanted to express their
gratitude in this way. The three-kilogram Sarkozy is from Akhurik
village. He is his parents' firstborn.
