FRANCE-ARMENIA-HISTORY-GENOCIDE
Jean-Claude Gaudin (2nd-R), mayor of southern French city of Marseille, poses with Eliane Kazandjian, president of the Council for coordination of Armenian organisations, before unveiling a commemorative plaque to mark the 95th anniversary of the Armenian genocide, on April 23, 2010 in Marseille, southern France. Armenians demand that Turkey regognizes the genocide of 1.5 million of their kin killed between 1915 and 1917 by the Ottoman Empire, Turkey's predecessor. In rejecting the genocide label, Turkey says between 300,000 and 500,000 Armenians and at least as many Turks died in civil strife when Armenians took up arms in eastern Anatolia and sided with invading Russian troops.
