    France's Justice Ministry was instructed to elaborate a new text of
    the genocide bill taking into account the decision of Constitutional
    Council, AFP reports.

    The Ministry will study the text and elaborate a new one in accordance
    with the constitutional and European standards, representative of
    the Ministry Bruno Badre said.

    As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, the Constitutional Council
    of France recognized the genocide law as unconstitutional, as it
    violates freedom of speech and expression.

    The bill on criminalizing denial of genocides was accepted by the
    French parliament on December 22, 2011, than was turned into law on
    January 23, 2012, by the French Senate.
