An anti-Armenian demonstration with the participation of Turkish high-ranking officials, including Internal Affairs Minister Idris Naim Sahin, took place in Istanbul downtown devoted to the Khojalu events.
Turkish Minister said that they will demand responsibility for the Khojalu events.
Besides, statements, insulting Armenians and Hrant Dink [Armenian journalist killed by Turkish nationalists] were voiced during the demonstration, which shocked even the Turkish society.
