France Senate takes Armenian genocide bill of the agenda

Lawmakers in the French Senate have buried a draft bill that would have criminalized any denial that the mass killings of Armenians in Turkey during World War I constituted genocide. The bill has been taken off the Senate agenda, and as presidential and legislative elections are scheduled for April through June, the new National Assembly, would have to hold a second vote on the bill to place it back on the agenda.
