    SARKOZY REITERATES PLEDGE OVER GENOCIDE BILL NEW TEXT

    Vestnik Kavkaza
    May 3 2012
    Russia

    Incumbent President Nicolas Sarkozy issued letters to A. Govciyan,
    President of the Coordination Council of Armenian organizations in
    France and Ara Toranian, co-chairman of the Coordination Council, in
    which he reiterated his intention to submit a new text of the bill
    criminalizing the Armenian Genocide denial, PanArmenian.net cites
    Nouvelles d`Armenie as saying.

    It is noteworthy, that during the Armenian Genocide commemorative
    event in France Sarkozy pledged to present the text in June

    French President also promised to continue struggle for "triumph of
    justice" in his letters.

    Sarkozy noted that the Armenians fell victim to the first carefully
    planned action aiming to annihilate an entire nation.

    "Armenian refugees became devoted children of France, and our country
    was honored to give shelter to them," he wrote, adding that France
    is honored to struggle for international recognition of the Armenian
    Genocide.

    "Though I respect the constitutional court's ruling, I want the new
    text of the bill to be submitted to parliament already in June,"
    French President's letters read.
