Sarkozy gets off the hook – expert

The French Constitutional Council’s ruling helped Sarkozy to get off the hook, according to Artak Shakaryan, a turkologist.

Commenting on the Council’s Tuesday ruling to deem the genocide denial criminalization bill unconstitutional. the expert told reporters on Wednesday that the move enabled the French leader to prove that he had nothing to do with the constitutionalists’ opinion.
Shakaryan said such outcome was not predictable given that the final decision depended on several members who were politically isolated from electoral processes and public moods.

“Although they say now that the Turks gloat over the ruling, the Constitutional Council’s decision depended actually on just a few members, so there’s absolutely nothing to rejoice at,” he said.
