Baku – APA. Armenian Youth Federation of Australia attempted to hold protest action outside the Turkey’s Consulate in Sydney for so-called “Armenian genocide” anniversary. According to APA, Turkish and Azerbaijani Diaspora representatives gathered outside the Turkey’s Consulate General waving the flags of Turkey, Azerbaijan and Australia and chanting slogans to support Turkey.
They hanged Turkish flags on the Consulate’s iron fence. Some of the Armenians gathered outside the building attempted to create confrontation and to resist to police cavalry. Representatives of the Turkish and Azerbaijani societies told Armenians that they claim 1915 events falsely and real genocide was committed by Armenians in Khojaly town of Azerbaijan in 1992. “Your dirty policy can not force the people to forget Aghdam, Kelbajar and Lachin. Sooner or later you will shame yourself with your false claims in the world”, they told Armenians.
