They waved the flags of Armenian and Artsakh, shouting “Turkey assassin!,” “Aliyev assassin”  and asking for the recognition of Artsakh.

The security forces intervened shortly before 9 p.m. to unblock traffic.

on Thursday, October 8, about 2,000 demonstrators blasted Turkey in front of its Embassy in Paris.

New demonstration is expected Tuesday, October 13 in front of the National Assembly of France.


Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
