YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 18, ARMENPRESS: On the occasion of the Azerbaijani
President Ilham Aliyev's official visit to France the Coordination
Council of Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF) held a protest
action at the local Armenian Church in Marseilles against the pardoning
of the assassin Ramil Safarov. As reported by Armenpress, quoting
Nouvelles d'Armenie, the action was attended by about 200 people,
including political and public figures. The Head of the Coordination
Council of Armenian Organizations of France Elian Kazanjian (Marseille
chapter) announced that the President of France Francois Hollande
will be transferred a letter signed by a number of officials, which
appeals to make clear actions to establish justice in the issue of
the Azerbaijani assassin Ramil Safarov's punishment, who axe-murdered
the Armenian officer Gurgen Margaryan.
The action was attended by the initiator of the bill criminalizing
the negation of the Armenian Genocide, Deputy of the French Senate
Valerie Buaye, Deputy Mayor of Marseilles Roland Blum, members of
the Marseilles Town Hall Council Didier Parakyan, Frolans Mars, etc.
The member of the Marseilles Town Hall Council, member of the
Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France Pascal
Shamasyan announced that their struggle would be long-term. "We
are appealing to the defenders of human rights and protectors of
democracy to express their anger concerning the incident and condemn
the Azerbaijan's actions", - said Shamasyan.
On September 18 at 18:00 local time in Paris a large-scale rally will
be held in front of the Azerbaijani Embassy and the Armenians will
express their indignation towards the Azerbaijan's policy and the
decision to receive Aliyev in France. Armenpress was earlier informed
about it by the Head of the French Office of the "Armenian Cause"
of France Hrach Varzhapetyan. France is a country of human rights,
justice and democracy and it should not receive the Azerbaijani
President after the murderer Ramil Safarov's release in a country like
France. "This time we should express our discontent more franticly.
The action will be attended by many Armenians, who will act with
united behaviour and trait", - said Hrach Varzhapetyan.
