Monday, September 7, at the initiative of Patrick Karam, President of the Coordination of Eastern Christians in Danger (CHREDO), a rally was held up in Bolivia, about a hundred meters from the Turkish Embassy in Paris where several representatives of associations and organizations from communities of Syrian, Kurdish, Yezidi, Armenian and Lebanese have expressed anger at the double game of Turkey guilty of Armenian Genocide and Assyrian-Chaldean it refuses to recognize. The event was supported by a student delegation from UNI.
“A century later Turkey as an accomplice of the genocide of Eastern Christians, Yezidi and minorities by allowing traffic of men, weapons and oil on its soil for the benefit of terrorist organizations that plague now on our soil and Europe. “insisted the president of CHREDO.
He denounced European financial aid (€ 6 billion from 2002-2013 to help the pre-accession) enjoyed Turkey. “We call on France to weigh on the European Union to suspend all funding granted to Turkey and force the countries concerned to clarify their position by giving proof of their full commitment against the extremists. For him “Turkey has no place at the Paris conference will serve as a platform to clear itself and regain international credibility as it continues its double play.”
Patrick Karam called in particular for the formation of a broad international coalition ground combat, Syria, Iraq and Libya.
For his part, the Deputy Mayor of the 16th arrondissement of Paris, Claude Goasguen, one of the first MPs to have mobilized in defense of the Christians of the East, supports Kurdish tale Daech offensive, saying that Turkey must be condemned for its ambiguous attitude that allowed Daech prosper. He questions, in addition, on the initiative of President of the Republic, “to send aircraft to” surveillance “on Syria, three years after the conflict began, deeming it” unacceptable that France sent arms Syrian opponents who are actually infiltrated by Islamist Al-Nosra and Al Qaeda. “And the bombing,” landless watchmen, are ineffective. “
Claude Goasguen has also pushed for financial assistance to Lebanon and Jordan, which are hosting refugees in camps, regretting that Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries, refuse to accept on their territory of political refugees.
For the Armenian community, the co-chairman of CCAF Ara Toranian also supporting the fight against the Kurdish Islamic state, it is no question that Turkey enters Europe without recognition and reparations it owes to against the Armenian people, Assyrian-Chaldeans as Greek and du Pont, victims of the genocide of 1915. Just as he protested against the presence of non-Eastern Christians and Kurds at the Paris conference, while the totalitarian state to double game enthroned there, he “who has expansionist designs on Syria and its environment.”
Ara Toranian concluded hammering that “time does nothing soothes! Time has no power to change the nature of crimes against humanity! As Turkey will be in this position, the suffering will be fueled. The problem will not be solved, because the demand for truth and justice will always be strong! “
