held a protest in front of the German Consulate General on Monday

intellectuals who wanted to attend the rally organized by the ‘Talat
Pasha Movement’ in Berlin on Saturday to protest German parliament’s
recent decision on the so-called Armenian genocide.
They chanted slogans against the German government and German
Chancellor Angela Merkel.
