    Protests Against Armenian-Turkish Protocols Greet Sargsyan in Paris

    Armenia's president has started his tour of Armenian communities
    worldwide amid violent protests from members of a diaspora angry over
    plans to establish ties with Turkey, reports the Associated Press.

    French riot police are fighting back belligerent demonstrators in
    Paris. A few dozen shouted "No!" and punched riot shields before a
    planned event Friday with Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan.

    Police dragged several protesters away kicking and screaming. Sargsyan
    appeared only for a few minutes; he placed a wreath by the Genocide
    Memorial statue, then promptly left.
