    CHAIRMAN ON RETURN TO COUNTRY

    ddp news agency
    20 Mar 06

    Berlin: After a demonstration by Turkish nationalists in Berlin [on
    Saturday 18 March], Home Affairs Senator Ehrhart Koerting (Social
    Democratic Party of Germany) has got his people to check the legal
    consequences for Dogu Perincek, chairman of the Turkish Workers'
    Party. On the sidelines of the demonstration, the politician denied
    the genocide of the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915, Koerting
    told the Home Affairs Committee on Monday [20 March]. So that he
    cannot give any "hate speeches" any more, the aliens authority is
    now checking as a precaution whether Perincek could be expelled from
    Germany if he enters the country again.

    According to Koerting, 1,350 Turkish nationalists demonstrated in
    Berlin on Saturday. They demanded, among other things, the rescission
    of a Bundestag resolution of mid-2005, which recalls the "almost
    complete eradication of the Armenians in Anatolia". According to the
    home affairs senator, only very few of the demonstrators came from
    Berlin. [passage omitted]
