A delegation of the Council of Coordination of Armenian Organizations
of France (CCAF), headed by its co-chairs Mourad Papazian and Ara
Toranian had a meeting with the delegation of the France-Armenia
Friendship Group of the French Senate, represented by its President
Philippe Kaltenbach and Senators Luc Carvounas, Hervé Marseille and
Bernard Piras.
The discussion focused on the future of the bill criminalizing the
denial of the Armenian Genocide and the official visit of the
President of Armenia to France.
Recalling the commitment of the French President to submit a new bill
criminalizing the Genocide denial, the CCAF delegation stressed the
importance of adopting it as soon as possible. The Co-Chairs reminded
that a similar motion was voted by the National Assembly in 2006 and
voted again by both Houses of Parliament less than a year ago.
Philippe Kaltenbach said the group wants to see a new bill submitted
before 24 April, 2013, Nouvelles d'Armenia reported.
