    FRENCH-ARMENIANS SLAM BILL ON OPENING AZERBAIJANI CULTURAL CENTER IN PARIS

    The Co-ordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF)
    has condemned a government-proposed bill on establishing an Azerbaijan
    cultural center in Paris.

    According Nouvelles d'Armenie, they have issued a statement in that
    connection, expressing astonishment over the plan.

    "On July 25, [Prime Minister] Jean-Mark Ayrault and [Foreign Minister]
    Lauren Fabius submitted to the Council of Ministers a draft that
    would allow the Azerbaijani dictatorship to found a cultural center
    in Paris. The CCAF is very surprised that France's new government
    attaches a big urgency to the draft, including it in the agenda. Are
    there no other priorities in France?" reads the statement.

    The members of the Council note that international human rights
    organizations constantly slam the Aliyev regime for violation of
    human rights and racist and non-democratic policies.

    "Following the anti-Armenian war against Nagorno-Karabakh, Baku has
    multiplied its threats against not only the Republic but also the
    Armenians worldwide, whom President Aliyev called his country's enemies
    without any hesitation in an April 16 scandalous speech," the say.

    Taking into consideration the above, the Council considers the move
    very surprising and shocking.
