French Armenians demand explanation from Senators who blocked Genocide bill![]() May 7, 2011 - 10:45 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF) has condemned the French Senate’s failure to pass the bill on criminalization of the Armenian Genocide denial. “No legal remedy was found to stop the policy of denial which is fervently spread by Turkish websites. The result of May 4 hypocritical vote was achieved through efforts of the majority party,” the CCAF said in a statement. “To favor Turkey, the government and President of France infringed the interests of French Armenians, who are mostly heirs of the Armenian Genocide survivors. The CCAF calls on all French citizens of Armenian descent to make relevant conclusions after such perfidious behavior,” it said. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
