YOUNG ARMENIANS RALLY BEFORE TURKISH EMBASSY IN WASHINGTON
More than 50 young activists joined the protest action before
the Turkish embassy in Washington organized by the Youth Union of
Armenian Revolutionary Party. The embassy was hosting the Assembly of
Turkish-American Associations (ATAA) known for the policy of denying
the Armenian Genocide.
Representatives of Livingston Group, organization hired by Turkey
to carry out anti-Armenian lobby in the US, former congressman Bob
Livingston and US State Undersecretary Mark Grossman, were received
by Turkish ambassador Faruk Loghloghlu.
Young Armenians were crying out "Shame on Turkey", "Turkey - Convicted
of Genocide", "NO to Turkey's Accession to EU". "We rallied here to
show the Turkish government and its mouthpieces in the States that we
shall never forget the massacres of the Armenians in 1915-1923. We'll
not stop till the Armenian Genocide is recognized and the historic
justice prevails", Tsoghik Markosian, head of the Youth Union, said.
