    GREECE TO DISCUSS GENOCIDE DENIAL CRIMINALIZATION BILL

    May 31, 2013 - 16:21 AMT

    PanARMENIAN.Net - A draft law envisaging criminalization and a penalty
    for denial and distortion of the facts of genocides was submitted to
    Greek parliament.

    The draft law was readied as a counter discrimination measure. The
    bill stipulates for 3-36 months' imprisonment or a fine of 5-20
    thousand euro for denial of genocides.

    Greek parliament recognized the genocide of Pontic Greeks, the
    Armenian Genocide and the Greek genocide in Asia Minor in 1994, 1996
    and 1998 respectively.
