    The law envisaging criminal punishment for denying the Armenian
    Genocide will be presented to Senate confirmation after the nationwide
    elections in the country. Chairwoman of the European Armenian
    Federation Hilda Tchoboyan told Armenpress that the law should be
    presented by the Socialists, the authors of the bill, who are
    currently engaged in the presidential elections expected in the
    country. She noted also that much depends on these elections. `The
    European Armenian Federation wants the law to be included in the
    Senate agenda, therefore, the works in this direction are under way,'
    Hilda Tchoboyan underlined.

    Let us remind that on October 13, 2006 adopted a bill envisaging
    criminal punishment for denying the Armenian Genocide, which should be
    approved by the Senate within a year.
