Cicek: "France will have to pay a heavy price"

Parliament Speaker Cemil Cicek said yesterday that in case the bill aiming at penalizing denial of alleged Armenian genocide in France was passed, France would have to pay a heavy price. In reply to journalists' questions on the issue, Cicek said, "Such exploitation efforts which are likely to create a miserable future and mislead the issue should be avoided. Otherwise France will have to pay a heavy price."
