Turks in Wales protest ‘genocide' memorial

"Turks in Wales protest ‘genocide' memorial

Turks living in the United Kingdom took action upon learning that a memorial for the memory of the victims of the so-called Armenian 'genocide' at the hands of the Ottoman Empire would be erected in front of the Temple of Peace in Cardiff, the capital of Wales, on Nov. 3.
