- 3.Declaration by Chard published on Rivarol website on 3 November 2006: :« Une dépêche [...] m’a appris le 2 novembre que [...] "la dessinatrice française Chard, qui publie régulièrement dans l'hebdomadaire d'extrême-droite Rivarol, a obtenu le deuxième prix, doté de l'équivalent de 6 300 euros, ex-aequo avec le Brésilien Carlos Latuff". [...] je n’ai jamais envoyé le moindre dessin à quelque Iranien que ce soit [...] Quant au dessin "primé", que j’ai vu pour la première fois le 3 novembre sur quelques sites Internet, il était destiné à un usage strictement privé… et il date d’une bonne dizaine d’années. J’ajoute que je n’ai aucune intention d’encaisser le montant du prix (en fait, 4 000 dollars selon le site iranien publiant le "palmarès") qui, s’il était un jour versé, irait intégralement au Comité d’entraide aux prisonniers européens (CEPE) s’occupant de Michel Lajoye, à l’exception d’un don au "Refuge du Chat". Chard. Vendredi 3 novembre 2006. »
