/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A bill penalizing the Armenian Genocide denial may
be introduced in the Dutch parliament again by initiative of a
Christian Union member. The legislation also calls for criminal
punishment for denial of the Holocaust and Rwandan Genocide.
Some members of the ruling coalition as well as D66 party remarkable
for its pro-Turkish stance oppose the bill. The D66 party was even
renamed by the population into T66 party, where T stands for Turkey.
Christian Democrats and Socialists are likely to support the
initiative, the Armenian Public Television reports.
