    PARIS. - French President Nikolas Sarkozy has not met Armenian
    Community in France yet, Hilda Tchoboian, MP of Rhone-Alpes region
    told Armenian News-NEWS.am. She added that she will not participate
    in the meeting as she represents an opposition.

    According to her, discussions are underway on this subject but nothing
    has been announced officially yet.

    Commenting on the French Constitutional Council's decision banning
    the law on criminalizing genocide denials, including the Armenian
    Genocide, she said that the bill will be submitted again.

    "That is not a question that can be solved in one day. It is quite
    possible that after the presidential elections in May the issue will
    appear on the agenda again but not at once, maybe after 6 months or
    a year."

    To note, the French Constitutional Court announced the law
    criminalizing denial of genocides including the Armenian Genocide to
    be unconstitutional on Tuesday.

    To remind, the bill on criminalizing denial of genocides was accepted
    by the French parliament on December 22, 2011 than was turned to law
    on January 23, 2012 by the French Senate.
