Several French Senators to Appeal to France’s Constitutional Council

A group of French senators will appeal to the Constitutional Council of France concerning the law criminalizing denial of any genocide (including the Armenian Genocide), French senator Nathalie Goulet told Baku-based news agency APA.

According to Goulet, the senators have begun collecting signatures to appeal to the Constitutional Council.

“The adoption of this draft law will damage terribly the relations with Turkey first and I am afraid probably with Azerbaijan. We can also lose trust as a Minsk Group co-chair [country].

“The Minsk Group is not working so well. When 60 senators sign, we will appeal to the Constitutional Council,” she said.
