Adoption of Armenian Genocide Bill in France - Correct Step by Good Friend

PanARMENIAN.Net - The bill penalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide in France is of great importance for Armenia, since our two states enjoy very warm relations, RA NA ex-Speaker Artur Baghdassarian said. "We always stand for the development of the French-Armenian relations and think it's a correct step made by a good friend," he said. At that Artur Baghdassarian added he is not surprised at Turkey's reaction. "We should not forget that besides France many other states have condemned the Armenian Genocide. If we do not condemn genocides we will have to face this evil in future. We should recognize what happened in the past in order to prevent its repetition tomorrow," he said, reports Golos Rossii.
