Ankara - Turkey's capital city, Ankara, is considering building a monument to Algerians killed under French rule and stripping main streets of French names in retaliation for French genocide accusations against Turks. A city official said yesterday Mayor Melih Gokcek had proposed such a monument as an answer to Paris's move to build a memorial alluding to Turkish massacres of Armenians in 1915.
That move followed French approval of a law accusing Turks of massacring Armenians in the death throes of the Ottoman Empire.
