TWO THIRDS OF FRENCH AGAINST ARMENIAN BILL

A public survey conducted in France has revealed that most of the
French public is against the Armenian bill passed in the French
National Assembly on Thursday. The Armenian bill makes it crime to
deny that an Armenian genocide occurred during World War I.

According to an online survey, 68 percent of respondents did not
welcome the Armenian bill.

Those who think that this bill serves an Armenian cause say that it is
"harmful" for France at the same time.

Only 26 percent of the respondents support the Armenian bill according
to the survey, while six percent refrained from expressing their views.

First the French Senate and then the President Jacques Chirac must
approve the bill before it can become law.
