ARMENIANS OF FRANCE HELD PROTEST ACTION AT UK EMBASSY
French Armenians gathered at the UK Embassy in Paris to protest against the position of UK Ambassador to Armenia Thorda Abbot-Watt, who questions whether the term "genocide" can be used for describing the massacres of Armenians in Ottoman Turkey in 1915. As reported by Freedom broadcasting station, the marchers were holding slogans "Turkey kills" and "Turkey continues denying the Armenian Genocide". The action participants also addressed a written protest to the UK Prime Minister.
