Press Review
After years of being the scene of Armenian demonstrations, over
the weekend New York’s famous Times Square played host to Turkish
counter-demonstrations. In response to Armenians’ demonstrations for
today, April 24, which they call the anniversary of the so-called
genocide, Turks living in the US organized a rally entitled “End to
Armenian Lies.” Many Turks including Turkey’s Consul General to New
York Omer Onhon and Turkish Americans attended the demonstration
held by the Federation of Turkish-American Associations (FTAA) and
Association of Young Turks. “This march is Turkish society’s reaction
to the constant repetition of the Armenians’ baseless allegations,”
said Onhon.
