WASHINGTON D.C. - Members of Turkish community in the United States held a demonstration in front of the White House to protest allegations of so-called Armenian genocide on April 24th, which was considered anniversary of the so-called genocide.
Nearly 1,000 Turkish, Azerbaijani and Turkish Cypriot people gathered in the Lafayette Park in front of the White House and held a peaceful protest.
Demonstrators observed a minute of silence out of respect to those who were killed by the Armenian terrorist organization ASALA.
Bruce Fein, a leading human rights activist, delivered a speech at the demonstration in which he described the allegations of Armenians as totally baseless.
Meanwhile, an American citizen of Armenian origin attempted to distribute a statement about the so-called genocide. He was taken away from the area by US police.
