Today the French Senate will consider the bill criminalizing denial of so called Armenian genocide. According to the report of Public Radio of Armenia, French Armenians will gather in front of the French Parliament to urge the Senate “not to give in to Turkish pressure”.
The delegation of the Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations in France (CCAF) had a meeting with French President Nicolas Sarkozy a few days ago to discuss the bill.
President Sasrkozy assured the CCAF representatives that the "government will leave the Senate free to determine its vote, without any instruction by the majority."
