France recognises Armenian genocide.

Quote:

The French National Assembly has formally recognised as genocide the slaughter of more than a million Armenians living in the Ottoman empire between 1915 and 1917

In fact, the French Assembly voted a bill criminalizing denial of Armenian Genocide : now, one year of imprisonment and 45.000 Euros of fine for any public negation of a genocide.
