    EAFJD CONDEMNS POGROMS ORGANIZED BY TURKISH FASCISTS IN BRUSSELS

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The European Armenian Federation condemns pogroms
    organized by Turkish fascists in Europe.

    A demonstration organized two days ago by the Turkish extremist
    right-wing group, the sinister Grey Wolves, caused chaos and mass
    violent disturbance in Brussels.

    "The European Armenian Federation strongly condemns the import into
    Europe of these racist and criminal customs which are well-known by
    the Armenians as a prelude to the systematic massacres of Armenian
    citizens. "We are expecting from the police and judicial authorities
    exemplary reaction regarding members of these criminal bands and
    their rulers" declared Laurent Leylekian, the director of the European
    Armenian Federation," EAFJD told PanARMENIAN.Net.

    He added, "We know that Turkey is always behind these pogroms. The
    Federation is certain that the Turkish State bodies - police,
    army, and judicial powers - are deeply infiltrated by these ultra
    nationalistic units, and it is attested that Ankara regularly gives
    orders to the Grey Wolves paramilitary forces, orders that emanate
    from the MHP (political group represented in the Turkish Parliament)
    to accomplish their dirty jobs in Turkey as well as in Europe."

    "The freedoms that these criminal groups have in Europe is encouraged
    by the indulgent attitude of our institutions towards racism. Turkish
    state ultra nationalism, compromise from our institutions (European
    Parliament and Commission, national and European political parties)
    towards the systematic denial of the Turkish state is interpreted
    by Ankara as authorization to develop its ultra nationalism in the
    European Union," concluded Leylekian.

    On Wednesday night some 200 people, belonging to Gray Wolves extreme
    movement, destroyed and set to fire Jardin de Babylone cafe owned by an
    Iraqi Armenian in the neighborhood Saint-Josse-Ten-Noode of Brussels.

    A little before in the evening the hooligans had pulled out then
    burned the American flag which was hanging on the frontage of the
    U.S. Embassy.

    Mehmet Koksal, a Belgian journalist of Turkish origin, who filmed
    the scene, was severely beaten by the extremists howling hostile and
    insulting the U.S. slogans.

    This demonstration would have a direct relation to the Turkish-Kurdish
    confrontation that has claimed lives of 12 Turkish soldiers are 23
    Kurdish rebels.
