Francois Hollande to attend annual meeting of Armenian Organizations of France

French President Francois Hollande will participate in the annual meeting of the Co-ordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France on January 28, according to the President’s agenda posted on his official website.

CCAF (Co-ordination Council of Armenian organisations of France) is the representative body of the French-Armenian Community. It unites the major political, cultural, educational, religious and social organisations of the Armenian community.

The main objective of the Council is to co-ordinate the intra-community activities, to fight the denialism of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Turkish Governement in 1915, to defend the interests of the Armenian community and represent the collective viewpoint on matters of public policy, while serving as liaison between the community and the State bodies.

“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
