Turkish Nationalists Protest French Bill on Armenian Genocide

Despite the prohibition of the Police some 100 Turkish ultra-nationalists by initiative of the Talaat Pasha Committee gathered on October 21 on the steps of Opera Bastille in Paris shouting out hostile slogans addressed to Armenians. On arriving in great number on the spot, the policemen constrained the demonstrators to dissolve the gathering, independent French journalist Jean Eckian told PanARMENIAN.Net. Moreover, on October 16 Ara Toranian, editor of the “Nouvelles d’Armenie Magazine” (News of Armenia) and Mourad Papazian, chairman of French branch of ARF Dashnaktsutyun became victims of hackers. An investigation is being carried out.
