    IN THE FRENCH SENATE

    Armenia

    In the course of the upcoming months, the French-Armenians will have
    to invest tremendous efforts for including the discussions over the
    bill envisaging criminal liability for the denial of the Armenian
    Genocide into the agenda of the Senate.

    Hilda Choboyan, Head of the ARFD "Hay Dat" Office in Europe, said
    that after the elections to the Senate, the upper house of the French
    Parliament has a new Speaker, and it is required to carry out an
    active lobbying for introducing the demands of the French-Armenians
    to the new leader.

    Let's note that on October 12, 2006 the French Parliament passed a bill
    envisaging punishment for the denial of the Armenian Genocide. The
    punishment includes imprisonment for the term of 1 year or fine in
    the amount of up to 45 thousand Euros. The Bill has been submitted
    to the Senate for approval.
