YEREVAN. – The process of penalizing the Armenian Genocide denial
will continue regardless of presidential election’s outcome, head of
Oriental Studies institute Ruben Safrastyan said.

He noted that several countries are closely following the developments
and if France adopts the bill, other European states may join.

The Armenian researchers participating in Moscow-hosted conference on
Turkey’s factor in the Middle East and Post Soviet states called on
the Russian side to join. Safrastyan considers that Europe is one step
forward: criminalization of the genocide is following the recognition.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
