Turkish student of French lyceum attended round table meeting over so-called "Armenian genocide" and said the "genocide" did not took place.

Mustafa attended the meeting with his friends and all were forced to leave their studies.

Failing to give an exhaustive response to the teacher Mustafa was so furious that he said “If there had been genocide, then Armenians deserved it."

Mustafa was assigned to prepare a report "Genocide committed by Ottoman Empire"; Crime against humanity".

Mustafa’s parents were against that sort of assignment. But the history teacher commented that the mission of the assignment was to make Mustafa stop thinking that “they deserved the "genocide.”
