French intel blacklists Turkish group
A French intelligence agency has prepared a report on a rally of the
Turkish associations protesting an Armenian `genocide' bill and
blacklisted some participant groups, ntvmsnbc news website reported on
March 30.
The French Central Directorate of Interior Intelligence (DCRI)
blacklisted a group called the `French Turk Federation,' affiliated to
Turkish opposition Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), according to
French `Le point' magazine. The federation also attended the rally in
Paris on Jan. 21, to protest against the French bill penalizing denial
of the Armenian genocide allegations. The bill was later annulled as
unconstitutional by France's high court.
The French Turk Federation is described by the agency as `an apparent
face of the ultranationalist Grey Wolves [a term widely used by
nationalist MHP supporters], which has from time to time resorted to
violence.'
