    Repeal of the law criminalizing denial of the Armenian Genocide by
    the Constitutional Council of France was the result of the Turkish
    lobby's overt pressure.

    "There is not any other explanation," Hrach Varzhapetyan, Head of the
    Hay Dat (Armenian Cause) office in France, said in an interview with
    the Yerkir Media TV channel.

    The Armenian community in France will not give up. "This law is of
    paramount importance for all of us. We are ready to start the process
    anew," he said. Varzhapetyan announced his intention to initiate a
    process of putting another bill on the French parliament's agenda. He
    noted that President Nicolas Sarkozy remains committed to his pledges:
    discontent with the Constitutional Council's ruling he ordered a new
    bill to be drafted.
