A French-Armenian protester hurled a cup of pomegranate juice at
Turkey's ambassador to France, Hakkı Akil, as he gave a talk at a
university in the French capital on Monday. The pomegranate is the
symbol of Armenia.
The protester threw juice on Akil during his talk on "Secularism
in Turkey and France" at the faculty of law at Paris Descartes
University. The attacker, who is not a student, was quickly detained
by security.
After the attack, Akil told Turkey's Cihan news agency that the
protester was a French citizen of Armenian descent, adding that the
French police had identified him.
"They have orchestrated attacks before. In Marseille and Paris,
they attacked [Turkey's] tourism offices," he said.
