Genocide Bill Takes France Back to Middle Ages - by Ercan Baysal, Kayseri
Reactions are gradually mounting against French legislation that would outlaw denials that the World War I-era killings of Armenians amounted to a genocide.
Noting that France has been the pioneer of freedom of expression since 1789, Turkey Associations and Stock Markets Union (TOBB) President Rifat Hisarciklioglu commented that any attempts to prevent debates about the alleged genocide would turn France back to the Middle Ages. The so-called Armenian Genocide Bill brought to the agenda in May is pointless, Hisarciklioglu said.
