Istanbul. A two-days international conference opened today in
Istanbul on genocide against Armenian people during the Great War,
RIA Novosti reports citing an announcement of the TV channel NTV.
The security measures have been increased in the region of the Bilgi
private university where the conference is taking place. The
authorities in Istanbul don’t exclude possibilities for provocations
from nationalists who announced yesterday that they will block the
building of the university and will not allow the conference to take
place.
