French National Assembly’s Union for Popular Movement faction will too
back the bill criminalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide. Head
of the faction Patrick Devedjian, of the Armenian decent, noted that he
will vote for dignity. He said he is impressed with the manifestation
of strength displayed by the demonstrators gathered in front of the
National Assembly with Turkish flags.
“I am thinking of Hrant Dink who was fighting for the recognition of
the Armenian Genocide in Turkey. The Armenian Genocide is irreversible
truth. There are undisputable facts. Turkey too has recognized the
Armenian Genocide,” Patrick Devedjian said.
