Iranian authorities Saturday banned Iran’s Armenian community from demonstrating in front of the Turkish embassy.
The Iranian News Agency said the interior ministry refused to grant Iranian Armenians a permission to organize the protest to mark the 89th anniversary of Turkey’s 1915 massacre of Armenians.
The ministry, instead, permitted the march be staged in the north of Tehran away from the Turkish embassy’s building, but the Armenian community insisted on staging the protest in front of the mission.
