ARMENIAN COMMUNITY HAS HOPES WITH F. HOLLAND
- Representative of Armenian Cause office of France Mourad Papazyan noted today during the press conference that the two presidential candidates Nikolkas Sarkozy and Francois Holland are competing to get some affection from the Armenian community, taking into consideration the fact that they can be void of the Armenians' votes.
He noted that the French media considers Sarkozy's actions in the pre-electoral context, which, according to Papazyan, is unacceptable as connecting the Genocide issue with the elections is wrong.
He also noted that Sarkozy made serious announcements in Yerevan but, in fact, his actions did not coincide with his words.
"We already have the Sarkozy experience, he promised something but did not follow it. We also have Holland's experience that he had promised to make a path for that bill. Unfortunately, it is a fact that after they are elected as president they do not realize their promises", said ARF representative.
