CHINA-ANTI-CHINA PROTESTS BY MUSLIMS

 Anti-China protests continued across Turkey for a second day on July 2, 2015, with crowds gathering in public places to demand that China stop what marchers perceive to be discrimination against its Muslim population. Demonstrations have so far taken place in the cities of Ordu, Giresun, Rize, Corum, Bayburt, Sinop, Karaman and Isparta -- and six more -- added to the 26 locations where protests had taken place overnight. Many of the protests have been organized by "Anadolu Genclik Dernegi" -- Anatolia Youth Association (AGD), a conservative group based in capital Ankara.


(Comment: The protests are against regulations imposed on Uyghurs in China by the authorities during the month of Ramzan.)
