Turks in US to hold protest actions against Armenians’ groundless claims

22 April 2016 [12:17] - TODAY.AZ

Turks residing in the US will hold large-scale protest actions against Armenian claims regarding the 1915 events, the Anadolu Agency reported Apr.22.

The protest actions will be held in New York and other large cities of the US with participation of representatives of Azerbaijani, Pakistani and Arabian communities.

Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor, the Ottoman Empire allegedly carried out "genocide" against the Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915. Turkey in turn has always denied "the genocide" took place. While strengthening the efforts to promote the "genocide" in the world, Armenians have achieved its recognition by the parliaments of some countries.
