GAZIANTEP - "Dokurcum mill in (southeastern city of) Gaziantep where
14 Turkish youths were shot to death by French soldiers should be
restored," Tourism Association Chairman Bekir Sitki Severoglu said.
Speaking to the A.A correspondent, Severoglu stated, "French soldiers
committed massacres in Gaziantep (in 1920). All countries should be
informed on this matter."
Severoglu noted, "I took several initiatives to condemn France,
but I did not receive any positive answer on the matter."
He indicated that "Dokurcum Mill Monument" should be erected against
the French draft law criminalizing denial of so-called Armenian
genocide.
A group of French soldiers executed 14 Turkish youths by shooting in
front of Dokurcum Mill on March 28th, 1920 (during Gaziantep Defence
in Turkish National Independence War).
