    NTV MSNBC, Turkey
    May 18 2006

    Ankara has strongly protested against the French bill.

    NTV-MSNBC
    Guncelleme: 17:54 TSİ 18 Mayıs 2006 PerşembePARİS - The French
    parliament on Thursday was forced to put off a vote on legislation
    that would have made claims that the Ottoman Empire did not commit
    an act of genocide against its Armenian citizens during World War
    One a criminal offence.

    Debate of the proposed law was curtailed due to the session starting
    late and was not completed when the time allocated for the debate
    ran out.

    Further debate on the opposition sponsored bill will not take place
    until October at the earliest.
