French president François Hollande has reaffirmed his
commitment to reintroduce a draft law penalizing the denial of genocides,
following an announcement by his foreign minister that such a law would not be
resurrected. Francois Hollande, during a phone conversation with ARF leader and CCAF
co-president Mourad Papazian, Hollande said he does not break his promises.
Earlier this week, foreign minister Laurent Fabius had
dismissed the genocide denial law during a meeting with his Turkish counterpart
Ahmet Davutoglu.
During his presidential campaign Hollande had vowed that
he would personally draft a similar law and shepherd its passage.
In April, Hollande said he would make sure that a new law
is drafted with “utmost legal security” in order to ensure its approval by the
country’s highest court. “We can no longer commit an imprecision that would
again leave us with the impossibility of having the text validated,” he said.
