    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Members of Uruguay's Armenian community joined in the
    protest demonstration on October 3 outside the European Union mission
    in Montevideo, organized by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation's
    "Armenia" Youth Union. Protesters held up Armenian tricolors and
    posters reading "Historic truth cannot be hidden," "Turkey, admit to
    your crime - the Armenian Genocide," and "No to Turkey's accession to
    EU unless Armenian Genocide recognition." Ethnic Armenian member of the
    Uruguay Parliament Lilian Keshishian, accompanied by MP Ivan Posatas,
    joined the protesters. A delegation of the protesters handed to the
    EU representative a petition signed by 30,000 people, demanding that
    EU denies Turkey's bid unless that country recognizes the Armenian
    Genocide, Yerkir online reported.
