    YEREVAN, MAY 22, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. "Sooner or later,
    France, as the leader of Europe, will again touch upon that issue,
    and we'll have success this time." Vahan Hovhannisian, the NA Deputy
    Speaker, an ARF Bureau member said to journalists on May 19, touching
    upon the postponing of the votion at the French NA the previous day
    for the draft envisaging criminal liability for denying the Armenian
    Genocide. According to him, clashes of interests are understandable,
    including the one that big financial and economic circles which are
    interested in Turkey influence on the Government. "But there are other
    circles as well, and they will become active now," V.Hovhannisian
    assured.

    According to him, the blackmail implemented by Turkey is not surpising,
    either, as during the last 250 years it "has been Turkey's main way
    of leading policy." He also emphasized that Turkey's reaction in
    the issue of recognition of the Armenian Genocide proves that the
    foreign policy being implemented by Armenia is becoming effective,
    and that the taken course is right.
