YEREVAN, AUGUST 26, ARMENPRESS. The Parliament of Greece has postponed the issue of discussion of the bill on criminalization of the Armenian Genocide denial. Upon the initiative of the Justice Minister of Greece Haralambos Athanassiou, the discussion of the bill was excluded from this week’s agenda of the parliament. It was stated that there are some technical problems and only after fixing them it will be possible to introduce the bill to the parliamentarians.

In a conversation with “Armenpress”, the Editor-in-Chief of “Free Day” (“Azat Or”) periodical Hripsime Harutyunyan stated that probably the bill will be introduced for the discussion next week. But by that time, it is considered that the Greek Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister will have a meeting today and will hold a discussion dedicated to the bill.
