Lebanon's Armenians protest president visit

Thousands of Lebanese of Armenian descent held a peaceful protest in Beirut Tuesday at the start of a visit by Armenia's president who has announced plans to establish relations with Turkey. The killing of up to 1.5 million Armenians under the Ottoman Empire in 1915 has been the main barrier to reconciliation. Armenians have long fought to persuade other governments to consider it a genocide. Turkey rejects the label and says the death toll is inflated.
