YEREVAN (YERKIR) - As reported by the ARF Press service, the
ARF Western Europe Central Committee has condemned the Turkish
demonstration held in Lyon on March 18. The Armenian Revolutionary
Federation (ARF) calls on the French government to carefully watch
the cases of denying the Armenian genocide in France.
The ARF condemns the decision by the Rhone region governor to sanction
this hate and denial demonstration, though he was informed upfront
about the real goal of the demonstration and that Turkish government
had secretly contributed to this demonstration through the Turkish
embassy in Paris and Turkish consulate in Lyon.
He was also aware of the contribution the Grey Wolves, a fascist
organization.
The ARF notes that using the Grey Wolves threatens France and the
French people.
The Turkish government on the highest level has decided to organize
the Turkish communities in Europe. The March 18 demonstrations in
Lyon and Berlin were the first expressions of the Turkish government's
involvement.
The Lyon demonstration had a clear characteristics of the Genocide
denial, something unacceptable to a country like France. France has
to immediately undertake adequate steps to end the development of
that damaging movement.
We demand that an investigation be launched to find the organizers
of the demonstration and to unveil the involvement of the Turkish
government in the demonstration, as well as to put an end to any
anti-Armenian expression against the French Armenians.
