Armenians of Marseille will hold a demonstration near the building of
municipality in a protest against French president’s visit to Turkey
planned for late January.

The organizers issued a statement expressing discontent with the
planned visit of Francois Hollande to a sate that `has no respect
towards human rights and rights of ethnic minorities, jails
journalists, continues decade-long blockade of Armenia, illegally
occupies northern Cyprus and continues disseminating Armenian Genocide
denial’, Nouvelles d’Arménie reported.

The Coordination Council of Armenian Organizations of France (CCAF)
decided to launch protests against Hollande’s visit to Turkey across
the states.
