There will be protest action on the Turkish-Armenian border against
burning of the Turkish flag in Armenia, the Igdir City municipality
told Trend.

Protesters burned the Turkish flag in protest against Ankara’s refusal
to recognize the so-called "Armenian genocide" in Yerevan April 24.

Destruction of the Turkish flag has caused outrage in Turkey.

The protest action, which will start May 8 and held under the slogan
"Defend your flag", will be attended by organizations of families of
martyrs and veterans, as well as other non-governmental organizations.

Armenia claims that the Ottoman Empire committed "genocide" against
Armenians living in Anatolia in 1915. Making greater efforts to promote
the issue internationally, Armenians have achieved its recognition
by parliaments in some countries.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
