Charles Aznavour and other French-Armenian atrists call French Senate to be loyal to their disposition
We, French artists of Armenian origin, the descendants of the Armenian Genocide, call the French senators to adopt the bill criminalizing the Armenian Genocide.
“We as descendants of the Armenian Genocide, do not wish to be hurt due to the denials of the historical fact. It injures us and the victimes of the Genocide who cannot protect themselves.
They shock us by showing that this fanaticism that led to the extermination of the Armenians of Turkey, is still at work and that we can still face it in France, where our parents and grandparents have found refuge.
We, who spread French culture in its various expressions, call the head of state, the government, and both parties who voted for this law to stand firm on their position and to ensure its ratification by the Senate in time for this legislature.
