The "Obstinacy" of Sarkozy

Armenian Genocide: François Bayrou denounced the "obstinacy" of Sarkozy. "The revival of this procedure by Nicolas Sarkozy today reflects an obstinacy which is well understood inspiration during elections but a head of state in its responsibility should not be encouraged", said MP and president of the MoDem.

Reactions are mixed in the political class Tuesday, February 28 following the decision of the Constitutional Council to censure the law criminalizing the Armenian genocide dispute, saying it was contrary to freedom of expression. This text is the cause of a quarrel between France and Turkey. President Nicolas Sarkozy has ordered his government to draft a new law punishing denial of the Armenian genocide after France's top court struck it down as unconstitutional.
