Turks hold Genocide Denial demonstration in Berlin

YEREVAN, JUNE 2, ARMENPRESS. The Turkish community of Germany is spreading Genocide denial and pressure on German lawmakers, ahead of the Armenian Genocide bill debates in the Bundestag.

As reported earlier by ANADOLU, a large number of Turks held demonstrations in Berlin.

Around 10 thousand Turks were waving the flags of Turkey and Azerbaijan and displaying posters with: “History is up to historians”, “No to Genocide Lie”, “Parliaments have no authority” sayings.

The demonstrators urged German lawmakers to vote against the bill.

The Armenian Genocide bill will be discussed in the Bundestag today on June 2. The bill is entitled “Commemoration and remembrance of 1915, 1916 Genocides of Armenians and other Christian minorities”.

In February of 2016, the debates on the bill did not lead to a voting, thus being postponed until June.
