Cyprus criminalizes Armenian Genocide denial
http://armenianow.com/genocide/62005...on_recognition
The parliament of Cyprus on Thursday passed a law criminalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide. The law was backed by 54 out of the 56 lawmakers who currently occupy seats in the 80-member Cypriot House of Representatives (30 percent of seats in the Cypriot parliament are allocated to the Turkish Cypriot community, but these have been vacant since 1964). Under the law those who deny the Armenian Genocide will face five-year imprisonment and a fine of 10,000 euros (about $10,800). The vote on the relevant bill presented jointly by all political parties of Cyprus in connection with the approaching 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide was postponed on March 26, as some Cypriot MPs had reservations on the issue and some of them wanted the bill to concern only the denial of the Armenian Genocide. Cyprus is the fourth European nation to have made denial of the Armenian Genocide after Greece, Slovakia and Switzerland. The Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs quickly welcomed the adoption by the Cypriot parliament of the law criminalizing the denial of the Armenian Genocide on the threshold of the Centennial of the Genocide. “By the adoption of this law Cyprus has made an important contribution to the lofty cause of prevention of genocides and crimes against humanity,” Minister Edward Nalbandian said in a statement. Armenian Parliament Speaker Galust Sahakyan is on an official visit to the Republic of Cyprus these days. It is remarkable that the Armenian National Assembly last month adopted a statement recognizing the genocide of Greeks and Assyrians in the Ottoman Empire. |

How about a law criminalizing the denial of the European/White Genocide that is currently underway.
