On Saturday, Aug. 23, around 600 people demonstrated in Paris to show
their support to Kurds and Yazidis--victims of massacres committed by
the Islamic State (IS) in Iraqi Kurdistan--and to advocate for
humanitarian aid for those who were forced to flee, Jean Eckian
reports from Paris.
The group included representatives from the Coordination Council of
Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF) and the Armenian Institute of
France.
Pastor René Leonian in a message of support to the Kurdish and Yazidi
communities, said, "We want to say emphatically to our Yazidi
brothers, Kurdish brothers, Alevi brothers, and Christian brothers of
all faiths--whether Assyrian-Chaldeans, Armenians and others--we
denounce these crimes against humanity; we denounce this genocide."
