Ozdemir
A German MP of Turkish origin, Cem
Ozdemir, says he has received death threats over Germany's recognition
of the 1915 massacre of Armenians by Ottoman Turks as genocide.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan castigated German MPs for the vote. He
scorned the 11 MPs of Turkish origin, saying, "What sort of Turks are
they?""Their blood must be tested in a lab," he said.
Ankara's mayor showed the 11 in a tweet saying they "stabbed us in the back".
Turkey recalled its ambassador from Berlin in fury after the German parliament on Thursday voted overwhelmingly for the Armenian "genocide" resolution.
